UK weather: Flights delayed and cancelled due to cold snap
Planes at Stansted were seen blanketed in snow on Sunday night
Passengers face delays and cancellations at airports on Monday after snow, ice and freezing fog swept the UK.
Gatwick and Stansted airports closed their runways on Sunday due to the bad weather.
Flights have since resumed but many have been cancelled or pushed back.
A yellow weather warning is in place for Scotland, Northern Ireland, much of England and parts of Wales, with disruption set to continue.
Trains have also been delayed and drivers warned to take care after several motorway accidents.
Those travelling to UK airports have been urged to check their travel plans and flight status with their airline before setting off.
About 90 departures were cancelled from Gatwick between midday and midnight on Sunday, with at least a further 37 cancelled on Monday.
EasyJet was the worst affected airline, while flights were also cancelled or delayed at Heathrow, Gatwick and Manchester airports.
Luton Airport has seen about two dozen cancellations.
London City Airport also said it is "experiencing some disruption this morning" due to aircraft being out of position after the "significant amount of cancellations" on Sunday night.
