Travel Chaos

You already know about it: the Volcano...that created the biggest air transport crisis ever.

And because almost no one is flighing this means that everyone is onlining: the traffic has moved from the sky to the web. The EUROCONTROL (the organisation that keeps the airports closed) website mentions: Due to the current European air traffic situation, our website is experiencing heavy traffic. We apologise for any inconvenience we may cause :))

Online collaboration platforms have helped again millions of people blocked in airports: hundreds of Volcano Profiles were created on Facebook, people are searching to share cars and share available routes info on Twitter and famillies take dinner togheter via Skype.

If you were caught in this chaos and you have posted your story online please put the link as comment.
Good luck getting home!!!
