Airports reopen across Europe

European
airports have been slowly reopening, easing the travel chaos caused by
six days of restrictions due to a cloud of volcanic ash over the
continent.

London's Heathrow, Europe's busiest airport, reopened
late on Tuesday, after France, Germany and Belgium had earlier allowed
a partial resumption of services.

"Airlines are now free to schedule their flights accordingly," Andrew Adonis, the British transport minister, said.

The
Eurocontrol air traffic agency in Brussels said it expected around
21,000 flights to take place in European airspace on Wednesday,
compared to the usual 28,000.

"The situation today is much improved," Brian Flynn, deputy head of operations at Eurocontrol, said.
The agency predicted that the number of take-offs and landings would be close to normal by Friday.
