The weather situation at British airports is slowly improving, with British Airways hoping to provide a fuller flight service.

Huge numbers of flights were cancelled because of a persistent freezing fog.

BA says it hopes to operate 95% of its Heathrow services with a full service tomorrow, Christmas Eve.

Some 40,000 people were affected yesterday when 411 flights were cancelled at Heathrow and other airports.
