79% Informative
EyjafjallajÃkull volcano in Iceland erupted in April 2010 causing chaos to travellers around the world.
300 airports closed, 100,000 flights cancelled, 10 million passengers unable to travel and a reported Â1.1 billion loss for the airline industry.
Today there are three levels of volcanic ash contamination - low, medium and high - with guidance on how long a pilot can fly in those concentrations.
Experts believe that if the 2010 volcanic ash event happened today there would be "nowhere near the same level of disruption" The level of ash seen in UK airspace in 2010 was relatively low and safe to fly in.
But Dr Hort warns: "You can always have a bigger eruption".
