Ash‐cloud of April and May 2010: Impact on Air Traffic
Figure 1. Traffic in Europe1 before and during the April crisis.

After
Summary:
The airspace closures in Europe resulting from the eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano from 14 April 2010 led to the disruption of some 100,000 flights and 10 million passenger journeys. The economic impact and the operational decisions have been addressed elsewhere. This report complements those studies. It considers the impact in terms of numbers of flights, with the principal aim of helping those who will analyse traffic statistics and their trends in the coming months and years. This draft of the report includes additional material estimating the effects of the eruptions in May, which added a further 7,000 ash‐cloud cancellations to the total. The main period of the crisis was 15th‐22nd April, though the effects started earlier and continued later, especially in Scandinavia and Iceland. 104,000 flights were cancelled during the 8‐day crisis. That is 48% of expected traffic over 8 days, peaking at 80% on 18th April. That implies approximately 10 Million passengers unable to board their flight. Amongst the flights which actually took place during the crisis were more than 5,000 additional flights put on by scheduled and charter carriers. These additional flights were for one or more of three reasons: to reposition aircraft; to reposition crews; and to accelerate the repatriation of stranded passengers. For simplicity, the estimates presented elsewhere in this report are not adjusted to remove the effects of these flights.
