In case you’re following the craziness going on over Europe due to that pesky volcano in Iceland, The New York Times provides a tracker for airport closures. The train stations must be packed more than ever before right now.
David sent this pic along of London air traffic before and after the eruption. Bustling to empty air space just like that.
Fingers crossed for an early end to to the chaos.
Does anyone else find it extremely ironic that the Icelandic airport is still green-lighted ?
i was thinking exactly the same thing
its all a secret war between uk and Iceland , first the banks now the airlines.
That is because of the current winds
Look, Eyjafjallajökull is the first negative CO2 volcano of all time! http://s3.amazonaws.com/infobeautiful/planes_volcanos.png

Recently in the UK we are hearing about potential reductions in supply fresh fruit and vegetables for supermarket stores.
Wonder if we will see economic infographic/visualizations soon in the media about European distribution logistic issues with re-routing of food supplies or the increase uptake in using public transportation such as train journeys.
