Can someone explain to my exactly why flights are still being cancelled? I understand the whole "big queues at security" thing, but what excuse do British Airways, and in particular Ryanair and Easyjet have for cancelling flights now? Seems to be to be a way of getting out of running flights and presumably demanding compensation from the Government, i.e. us, the taxpayer. To be fair to Easyjet, they say they should be running a full schedule today. Ryanair, however, expect to cancel 1 in 5 flights! Is this their normal pisspoor service? Bastards!
Snippet from the BBC: "Confusion over the new restrictions extended into the cabin when a hostess asked passengers to switch off mobile phones and was met by loud laughter from the passengers, none of whom had been allowed to bring theirs aboard."

Update: apparently it's evil BAA behind it all. They have asked all airlines to cancel 20-30% of flights today, because they don't have the ability to security scan people. I.e. the cheapskates are skimping on paying for enough people to do the checks. Not amused!
