Eurocontrol Expects Minimal Immediate Impact From Volcanic Eruption

But Conditions Could Worsen Over Next Two Days

As of 1000 CET Monday, Eurocontrol says it expects no significant impact on flights Monday as a result of the eruption of the Grimsvötn volcano in Iceland.

However, according to the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC) in London, depending on the continuing eruption of the volcano and the meteorological conditions, there is a risk that some ash cloud may reach parts of northern Europe in the next 48 hours.

The European Aviation Crisis Coordination Cell (EACCC), comprising representatives from Eurocontrol, the European Commission, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), States and air transport stakeholders, has been activated in order to coordinate a response that can mitigate any potential impact while maintaining established safety levels.
