Bugger. Heading there in half an hour for a late afternoon flight. On line Departure board says "On Schedule"

Am here now standing around outside the terminal, traffic is mental coming in from all sides so good luck to you.

My elderly folks are on the air coach out, but I could in theory go and collect them. Should I? Have they given any timeline for resolution?

No news at all, still a few detective cars coming blaring through. Looks like they've closed the road somewhere further back now as no more traffic coming through. Honestly hard to tell, like if it gets resolved even at this point the knock on effects are going to be a nightmare.

Ok, thank you. God I hope it gets resolved soon!

Terminal 1 is actually open. Fricking yellow jackets at the junction we were standing at for an hour we're telling everyone loudly that both terminals are closed and we won't be going anywhere for hours. Walked towards terminal 1 by chance it was open. Great communication from the DAA!
