A SURVEY published by passenger compensation company Flightright has found that more than half (51%) of flights to Portugal from the top six UK airports were delayed or cancelled in June, July, and August last year.

Greece and Egypt had the least flight disruption, with fewer than one in five flights affected by delays or cancellations.

Portugal 51%, 
France 45%, Spain 37%, Turkey 33%, Egypt 19%, 
Greece 14%

Gatwick also faced disruption with 40% of flights delayed or cancelled, while only one in four departing from Stansted were affected.
