Episode notes

Ahead of the Platinum Jubilee bank holiday weekend there are fears holidayers will be hit with travel problems, after a series of delays and cancellations to flights and ferries abroad.

Hundreds of flights were cancelled in airports across the UK over the weekend, while passengers travelling abroad via Dover have reported being ‘stuck for hours’.

We speak with the Evening Standard’s Crime Correspondent Anthony France about what problems passengers have been facing, and why there have been so many issues.

Plus Travel Journalist Lisa Francesca Nand explains what compensation is available to travellers hit by disruption, and how to claim it.
