Ash fall from the volcanic eruption in Eyjafjallajökull has affected air traffic in England and Scandinavia today and therefore traveling to and from Iceland.
Around 1,100 people are waiting for flights at Keflavík International Airport, according to information from the airport’s information officer, Fridthór Eydal. Although ash from the volcano isn’t blowing over Keflavík, airports in Europe are closed, including London.
It is recommended that everyone who has to go outside wear a dust mask because of toxic chemicals that could possibly be emitted into the atmosphere through the ash fall that comes with the current volcanic eruption in Eyjafjallajökull glacier.
