Happy to say both Hawarden and Cranfield waived all charges as weather diversions. Shame taxis/hotels/restaurants/tescos (run out of underpants and socks!) don't work the same scheme.

Joking aside I highly applaud the weather diversion scheme and top marks to all the airfields that have already signed up to it and lets hope the rest do soon. Worrying about potential landing fees is a pressure you can do without when conditions deteriorate to the extent of needing to land, a large airfield with good facilities and lots of lights is a very welcome sight.
