our transport correspondent katy austin is at heathrow. yes, that's right. for uk departures since 2019, before the pandemic. the summer holidays well and truly getting under way. many airports and airlines have been affected by this it issue around the world, some airlines having to resort to manual processes to get passengers on their way and as we enter what is going to be a busy, busy period, it is important to remember that when it is so busy, if anything happens to get things out of position that can all add up to a really big impact. what a start to the summer holidays. this was gatwick airport. passengers who should have been on planes forced to wait out delays. so people are tired. they've been handing out water. the boards don't really say anything, so it tells you where to go, but there's no departure...there's no departure board, like times of flights. and this was the scene at stansted. many airlines have been unable to use their systems as normal. ryanair told people to leave airports if theirflight had been cancelled, as staff couldn't help th

so take heathrow, where the protest was.llion tons of carbon. now, what does a tonne of carbon mean? most people don't know what it means. 20 million tons of carbon is more emissions than every single household in britain's electricity . so we would have to electricity. so we would have to turn off everything in our households for a year to save the emissions from heathrow. another example of how bad it is a family of four flying to disney world for one holiday would emit ten tons of carbon. that's 20 years of their electricity for 20 years. so we have to act on climate on just, just before we bring neil in, >> what does that actually mean? so, i mean, you could be cutting emissions or halving emissions, whatever, but big deal. what doesit whatever, but big deal. what does it mean? what does it do? what how bad is that? >> well, it's very simple physics. if you add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, it traps heat. the planet gets warmer every month for the last 13 months. eamonn have been the hottest month in human history. t

simonjones, reporting from heathrow.ome figures regarding the level of flight cancellations that happened on friday and today, so this is the airline data provider who says that 6855 flights were cancelled globally yesterday, and that is 6.2% of scheduled flights. if we look at today, as of 10am british summer time, which is london time, 1639 flights have been cancelled globally today. just over 1.5% of scheduled flights. so 6% yesterday, 1.5% today. but we are still fairly early in the day. meanwhile, president biden said he's "looking forward to getting back on the campaign trail next week" after his isolation with covid. pressure mounted on the us president overnight, when a democratic congressman, who described mr biden as a mentor and friend, didn't seem to recognise him at a d—day event last month. here's our north america correspondent, peter bowes. the calls forjoe biden to get out of the presidential race are not letting up. in all, more than 30 democratic members of congress, including four senators, have said

my colleague lucy gray there at heathrow airport for us. this kind of thing happening again, to avoid... what should be done to avoid seeing the infamous "blue screen of death" again? i asked jake moore, the global cybersecurity adviser at eset and a former cybercrime officer. in a nutshel he says more resources should be put into testing. we hear so much about cyber attacks in the news, our data going missing, passwords being compromised. this isjust the time that we're living in. but what's come out of this? it's to do with updates, and all software needs to be updated to keep us all secure from threat actors trying to exploit any given vulnerability. but this update unfortunately looks like it had a major fault in it, which comes down to a testing issue, but that's the balance between speed of the update getting put out to all those computers, and of course keeping everyone secure from any known or even unknown vulnerability. let me talk to you a little bit more now about, you know, the irony here, because crowdstrike — is it not — a com

temperatures reaching 31.2 c at heathrow airport nonetheless. so pnor heathrow airport nonetheless.h. temperatures reached 30.5 degrees, but but we've passed beyond that today. could we finally be getting a taste of summer? >> we both smirked. a little when we said the temperature had reached whatever it was at heathrow airport. yeah, because they always seem to take the temperature at the airport, and one might think that actually it might be hotter than, you know, elsewhere because there's lots of tarmac. >> maybe. although i do remember the hottest part of the country a couple of years ago was the botanical gardens in cambridge. they have they have their sensors in very odd places, anyway, let's cross to our gb news east midlands reporter will hollis, who's in skegness enjoying the sunshine. will, doesit enjoying the sunshine. will, does it feel like the warmest day of the year to you ? day of the year to you? >> who needs an airport when you can just get on any a—road and head towards the lincolnshire coastline? or pretty much any coastline? or pretty much any coastline right no

heathrow is impacted. so standards, so as gatwick, so airports in paris, madrid, lisbon, honestly, i think you'd be hard pushed to find an airport that isn't impacted. and also, of course, a number of airlines. i think we have a list we can show you across asia. you have a air asia said boo, you have singapore airlines airlines australia, and so many airlines in europe as well. this is just the beginning around 1,400 flights canceled so far around the world, many, many, many more are delayed. and of course you get the knock on impact of that through the day as well. >> jim all right. anna stewart and isabel rosales. let's hope that things get untangled quickly. thanks so much. really appreciate it. let's shift gears right now to the biden reelection campaign just this morning. biden's campaign chair says that the president is absolutely staying in the race but despite all that, we have new reporting this hour, that things could be changing more democrats are publicly calling for him to abandon the race and

several parts of london saw temperatures up to 32 celsius, including heathrow, kew gardens, saintjamesthe warmest day of the year, we've also officially seen a heat wave already in some regions, especially kent, east malling, and bramham, in west yorkshire. these areas have seen temperatures exceed their heatwave threshold for sunday, monday, and tuesday. so already, three consecutive days and we may well see another day or so of heatwave conditions in some areas. so, it's still warm and humid again, but a thunderstorm risk, as we head through wednesday in the southeast of england. to start the day, then, we've got the heat and humidity in the south from the word go. it's fresher, further north. long spells of sunshine, lots of dry weather, light winds, really pleasant late—july day but it is humid towards the south and, as we head through the afternoon, you can see those showers and thunderstorms starting to crop up, particularly so across parts of kent into sussex, as well. they'll be hit—and—miss, so you might not see one, but if you do catch one, could be some localised flooding. t

among those affected has been american airlines, and here at heathrow airport terminal 3, for a timeers were turning up to be told they couldn't drop off their bags and theyjust had to go away and wait for more information. on the railway, many of britain's train operators have seen an impact. most services have been running, but there have been short—notice changes and cancellations and problems with passenger information systems. people whose flights have been cancelled should be offered rebooking or a refund, but probably not compensation as it will count as "extraordinary circumstances". as the afternoon went on, some of the worst affected airlines were able to get up and running again. back at gatwick, that was the reaction to a system reboot after a nearly seven—hour wait to check in for a north atlantic flight to miami. but on such a busy day, the knock—on impact will take time to sort out. katy austin, bbc news. this outage has caused travel chaos all over the world. the outage has been a global issue — and some of the first countries to report problems were in asia. our corr

it is scattered, the impact, as i have been closely monitoring heathrow.it feels an lot of flights are taking off. gatwick has had problems. this is sky guide. sky guide is not accepting any further incoming flights. this does not affect flights already in the air. for those traveling today, phil, how do they feel? what confidence can they have that they will arrive safely at their destination? >> reporter: they will not take off unless they believe it's safe. everything revolves around safety. if a flight takes off, you can feel confident you will get to your destination safely. the question becomes when do the airports and airlines feel comfortable enough in terms of ticketing and pacb baggage chec boarding to get everybody on the plane they're supposed to be on. that comes down to the inner connected systems not only in the united states, but around world. to answer your question, karen, if you are at the airport and we're going to board and ready to go, you can have confidence you will takeoff safely and everything will happen in a smooth manner in ter
