EasyJet chief executive Johan Lundgren has demanded a full independent review into the air traffic control (ATC) meltdown over the bank holiday weekend.
The malfunction, which National Air Traffic Services (Nats) said was caused by incoming flight data, saw more than a quarter of UK departures and inbound services cancelled on Monday (28 August).
Speaking to the Press Association, Lundgren said an incident on this scale "should not have happened" and "must not happen" again in the future.
