## Resource

Air traffic between the Netherlands and the U.K. ground to a halt this week after a major technical glitch at NATS caused nearly 90 flights—mostly from Schiphol—to be cancelled, with 60% of scheduled routes disrupted. Airlines including British Airways, EasyJet, and KLM were hit hardest, while airports like Eindhoven and Rotterdam also felt the ripple effect. NATS issued an apology, confirmed a fix was deployed by Tuesday afternoon, and warned recovery would take time. Travel chaos ensued as plans crumbled, a sobering reminder of how fragile air travel systems can be when they fail.
