My flight back to the UK was cancelled due to the ATC issue in the UK. EasyJet rebooked me to fly on Wednesday, so I have had a two night delay. AMA!

We have a room at the Novotel Orly Airport, but all on our credit cards. We were on a four night package trip to Paris for the weekend. We are hoping EasyJet will reimburse our costs.

Did they automatically rebook you? They haven't bothered to reply to my DM so we've sorted our own alternative flights, a 5 hour train journey to another city where the flights are. Also 2 nights of hotels. They will be getting a big bill off me.

Yes, as we were waiting for our luggage to come back the EasyJet app updated with an automatic rebooking for Wednesday. Some people were rebooked for Thursday and others hadn't been rebooked at all. I'm interested to see how many are on our airplane tomorrow.

Would it be quicker to walk home?

I looked and Google Maps quoted me four days to walk home! But SkyScanner did offer me a flight via Dubai which would be quicker.

Are you aware there's a convenient train service between Paris and the UK?

Are you aware that it was a) fully booked and b) extremely expensive
