Holidaymakers have faced chaos at airports in recent weeks.

Disruption is set to get worse from this weekend as most school summer holidays begin.

Rory Boland, travel editor of Which?, told Panorama: ‘What's reassuring is that it's not all airlines, it's not all airports. Before you book, take a look around what's happening in the airport near you and the airlines you're considering.'

Airlines UK policy director Rob Griggs told Panorama: ‘I don't think there were wrong decisions made in terms of planning for the summer.

Aviation Minister Robert Courts MP said: ‘At the end of the day, this is a sector that is privately run, privately owned, privately operated, and it's for them to get into the sector the people they need.'
