The UK’s ongoing cold snap is continuing to cause disruption for travellers after several airports were forced to close their runways late on Monday and on Tuesday (6-7 January) due to fresh heavy snowfall.

Early on Tuesday (7 January), Liverpool’s John Lennon airport confirmed its runway was closed to allow for snow clearing, before reopening at around 10.30am. Aberdeen airport was another forced to close its runway, which it said required de-icing.
Runway operations at Bristol airport, meanwhile, had resumed by 8am following a closure during the early hours. This follows a closure late last week during the first snow flurries.
