Southampton Airport suspends all flights after runway incident
ALL flights from Southampton Airport have been suspended after an incident on the runway earlier this morning.
A tyre blowout from a plane coming in to land means that the runway is currently blocked.
All flights are currently being delayed for 30 minutes.
Posting on social media, Southampton Airport tweeted: ‘Passengers travelling through the airport this morning, please be advised we are currently expecting delays of around 30 minutes on all flights following a tyre blowout on an earlier landing.
‘We will update you as soon as the runway is cleared. Thank you for your patience.’
