European airports, including smaller terminals, are facing challenges in implementing the new European Entry/Exit System (EES) post-Brexit, leading to concerns about potential travel chaos for British tourists. The EES, set to activate on October 6, requires fingerprint scans and photo registration for non-EU travelers, with some airports unprepared for the technology. Industry leaders, like Rafael Schvartzman from IATA, have called for urgent action and a transition period to address unresolved issues. Additionally, UK airports experienced significant flight cancellations in 2023, with Aberdeen Airport topping the list, raising questions about operational efficiency. Amidst these challenges, London's Heathrow Airport workers are planning a strike next month, adding to the disruptions in the aviation sector.
