Thank you for the information Dumbell2424.

Jump to postA friend called me from Portugal saying it was on the news that Heathrow and Schiphol are closed due to the strong winds. Can anyone confirm this information? According to Schiphol website flights are landing and departuring normally with a few delays. I think it's again "guessing journalism".....
Jump to postI'm flying tonight from Ams to Lis with KLM, let's see how it goes in terms of delays.
Last night the winds were very strong.
