Contributing factors
- ATC capacity issues in Karlsruhe, Barcelona, Bremen, Madrid and Budapest ACCs;
- High delay due to staffing in Marseille ACC;
- Low visibility and strong winds impacted operations strongly at London/Heathrow and Amsterdam/Schiphol airports;
- Airport capacity issues in conjunction with work on runway and taxiway at Amsterdam/Schiphol airports generated delays.
