Gatwick Airport in the UK has warned passengers with flights operated by British Airways and easyJet of potential disruptions due to a fuel shortage. The issue, caused by a technical problem at a fuel farm, has led to concerns over the availability of sufficient fuel during the peak travel season. The airport confirmed the shortage is linked to an operational fault at the fuel supply facility, which could impact hundreds of flights.

The situation has prompted the airline operators to issue flight warnings, advising travelers to check for possible delays or cancellations. While the exact number of affected flights remains under assessment, the timing of the issue coincides with a busy period for air travel.

Sources indicate that the technical issue at the fuel farm is the primary cause of the disruption.
