Travel chaos as holidaymakers return home

Millions of people are facing travel troubles on the roads and at airports as they head home from their holidays. More than 90 per cent of travellers will be on the road, where drivers will be facing headaches beyond just major congestion. Heavy rain, flooding and dense fog are creating hazardous conditions in many parts of the country. More than 7,000 flights from the US were delayed on Wednesday. By Thursday, hundreds of flights were already behind schedule.
