英国国家空中交通服务公司（Nats）普雷斯特威克控制中心发生连接问题，导致苏格兰、北爱尔兰和英格兰北部地区大规模航班中断1。这是该公司两周内第二次出现技术故障1。至少200班航班被取消或未能起飞，其中100班预计抵达英国，99班预计从英国出发1。
多家主要航空公司遭受严重影响。易捷航空670班预定班次中有47班被取消，英国航空513班预定班次中有11班被取消1。瑞安航空受影响140班航班，涉及25000名乘客1。普雷斯特威克控制中心负责英国42%的空中交通1。
面对连续故障，航空公司对Nats的系统可靠性提出严厉批评，瑞安航空重申要求Nats首席执行官马丁·罗尔夫辞职1。民航局指出，乘客"不太可能"有权获得赔偿，因为技术问题可能被视为"非常情况"1。Nats方面表示此次为"连接问题"，与9月早些时候Swanwick的软件缺陷无关1。
Britain's National Air Traffic Services (Nats) experienced a second technical failure within two weeks, with a connectivity issue at Prestwick control centre causing widespread disruption across airports in Scotland, Northern Ireland, and northern England.1 At least 200 flights were cancelled or unable to depart, with 100 scheduled to arrive in the UK and 99 planned to depart from British airports.1
Major carriers bore the brunt of the outage. EasyJet cancelled 47 of its 670 scheduled flights, while British Airways saw 11 cancellations out of 513 scheduled services.1 Ryanair reported 140 affected flights involving approximately 25,000 passengers.1 The disruption intensified calls for accountability, with Ryanair reiterating demands for Nats chief executive Martin Rolfe to resign.1 Nats said the incident stemmed from a "connectivity issue" and was unrelated to a software defect at Swanwick earlier in September.1
The Prestwick control centre handles 42 percent of the UK's air traffic, making the outage particularly consequential for national aviation operations.1 The Civil Aviation Authority indicated that passengers were "unlikely" to be entitled to compensation, as technical problems may qualify as "extraordinary circumstances" under relevant regulations.1
