Hopefully they may start flights to the North soon ? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8630455.stm

I hope so...booked for Genoa to Stansted Wednesday although at the moment this flight has been 'cancelled' but I'm not holding my breath. One thing this crisis has done is to focus one's mind on alternatives to air travel.

I am due to fly to Rome Ciampino on Wednesday late afternoon from Newcastle. The airport is supposedly opening tomorrow morning for flights.  I am not holding my breath but just hoping ..........   My husband Ron is already in Italy, been there four weeks and we were going to spend a few days together before he flew home on Sunday and I stayed at our house over there for about 10 days on my own. I bet I fly out on Sunday on the flight he would take back to the UK and we don't see each other!   Maralyn
