Storm Ciara causes hundreds of flights across Europe to be canceled
London Storm Ciara caused hundreds of flights across Europe to be canceled on Sunday -- the same day that its winds helped a British Airways plane to make the fastest-ever subsonic flight from New York to London.
Two of Europe's busiest airports -- one in Frankfurt, Germany, the other in Amsterdam, Netherlands -- each grounded more than 100 flights due to the storm. Hans van Kastel, a spokesman for Schiphol airport in Amsterdam, told CNN that 120 flights were affected by the storm. At least 135 flights were also canceled at Frankfurt am Main airport, according to a spokeswoman.
