The same old story again and again and again. It's winter. It' snowing. It's slippery. Locals never heard of winter tires. The horrible (160 m elevation) "hill" at LTN can not be reached by car. Airport is closed for 2 cm of snow. When it's declared "open" no one can land as none of the first wave flights departed and there are no stands available. 8 Wizz flights diverted (5 to BHX, 1 to LGW, 1 to LPL, 1 to BRU (!). The same old story again and again and again each year.
