Icelandic Volcano II - It's back!

Irish airspace is shut from 7am to 1pm.

I've just heard the bloke from the Icelandic met service on the radio saying that the Irish were being over optimistic that they would be able to open it again after that. He also said that the ash was heading towards England.

I hope that no-one has any travel plans for the next few days....

We'll be fine. They will just rejig the safety levels again to keep (most of) the planes in the air. It is all about bottom line you see.

Looks like you'll be OK.

Airports are opening again later, ash not as thick as first thought. At least they are not waiting a week to check that detail this time.
