英国空管服务商Nats的系统于周二下午1点左右发生重大技术故障,导致超过1300班航班被取消1。这是该公司三年内第三次发生此类严重中断事件1。受影响的机场包括希思罗、盖特威克、曼彻斯特和斯坦斯特德1。
面对飞行混乱进入第二天,英国运输大臣海迪·亚历山大已要求Nats首席执行官马丁·罗尔夫于周三进行汇报1。罗尔夫排除了网络攻击的可能性,称"我们这一点已经排除了网络攻击"1。然而,他也承认这是"我们50多年运营中从未见过的事件"1。
来自航空业的批评声浪不断升温。瑞安航空报告称超过65000名乘客遭遇延误,其中50班航班被取消1。威兹航空管理总监尤文·莫伊尼汉表示,"三次失败后,需要考虑三振出局"1,暗示航空公司对Nats领导层的信心已经动摇。
Britain's National Air Traffic Services (Nats) suffered a major technical breakdown on Tuesday afternoon, disrupting flights across the country and intensifying pressure on the company's leadership.1 More than 1,300 flights were cancelled across the second day of disruptions, affecting major airports including Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester, and Stansted.1
The incident marks the third significant failure for Nats within three years.1 Chief Executive Martin Rolfe is scheduled to meet with UK Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander on Wednesday to address the crisis.1 Rolfe stated that the company had "ruled that out" regarding cyber attacks as a cause, though he acknowledged the severity of the situation, calling it "an event we have not seen in our 50 years-plus of operation."1 Ryanair reported that over 65,000 passengers experienced delays, with 50 of its flights cancelled.1
The repeated failures have triggered demands for leadership accountability. Wizz Air's Managing Director Everton Moynihan suggested that "after three failures, a three-strikes rule needs to be considered,"1 reflecting growing frustration among operators.
