"Fault Lines" in Britain's Air Traffic System The UK's National Air Traffic Services (NATS) has been at the center of a major disruption to British air travel, with over 1,000 flights cancelled and delayed due to a problem with its flight processing system.
On Wednesday, NATS CEO Martin Rolfe ruled out a cyberattack as the cause, promising a thorough investigation into the incident.
The timing and scale of this disruption are striking, particularly given that it follows a similar system failure in August 2023, which cost airlines $135 million and resulted in several flights being cancelled.
