Flights diverted and cancelled at Jersey Airport after drone disruption
Multiple UK flights were diverted or cancelled at Jersey Airport after unauthorised drone activity in restricted airspace on two consecutive nights.
Flights from London Heathrow, Gatwick and Southampton were disrupted at Jersey Airport on Friday night after reports of unauthorised drones in restricted airspace. One incoming flight from Gatwick eventually landed, but services from Heathrow and Southampton were cancelled. The disruption continued on Saturday evening, when four inbound flights were unable to land as scheduled. Jersey Police said searches across the west of the island found no drone operator. Jersey's Chief Minister, Senator Lyndon Farnham, said operating drones near an airport was not 'a prank or a harmless hobby' and warned those responsible should 'expect to face the full consequences of the law'. Police believe two or three drones entered the restricted airspace but ruled out terrorism links.
