Ryanair has issued a warning to passengers about "potential disruptions" at London Stansted Airport today due to fog conditions.
The airline released the alert early this morning as weather conditions threaten to impact services throughout the day.
The fog warning comes as many travellers are expected to pass through one of London's busiest airports today.
London Stansted Airport welcomed 29.76 million passengers in 2024, marking its "busiest ever year", which suggests that today's disruption could thwart travel plans for many.

All travellers flying to or from Stansted today should check the Ryanair app for the latest updates on their flight status.
The situation is developing as morning fog continues to impact visibility at the airport.
Ryanair expressed regret for any inconvenience caused to passengers by the adverse weather conditions, but emphasised that the disruption "is outside Ryanair's control".
While the statement was issued to Ryanair customers, holidaymakers travelling with other carriers should also brace for disruption.
Indeed, the budget Irish airline warned that the disruption "affects all airlines" operating to/from Stansted Airport today.
Other popular airlines that operate from London Stansted include easyJet, Jet2, and TUI.
Passengers on all carriers can expect potential delays or cancellations as the fog situation continues to impact operations.

When holidaymakers jet away, the last thing they want is to face disruption at the airport.
Earlier this month, travel mayhem ensued at Stansted Airport due to an ongoing IT issue, with passengers reporting "total chaos" even after it was resolved.
Several systems were affected, including check-in, baggage and security, resulting in "absolute carnage".
