The Civil Aviation Authority has declared the event to be an "extraordinary circumstance" because it is out of the control of the airlines.

Extraordinary circumstances can include, a security risk, political instability or severe weather that makes flying dangerous.

"In such circumstances, airlines are not obliged to pay financial compensation to passengers affected by the disruption," a spokesman for the CAA said.
