    UK CAA: NATS outage likely 'extraordinary circumstances', limiting passenger compensation

    The UK Civil Aviation Authority issued a statement on the NATS flight-planning system technical issue of 8 September 2026, which led to delays and the cancellation of hundreds of UK arriving and departing flights and continued knock-on disruption. The CAA considers delays and cancellations directly caused by the outage, and by its knock-on effects, likely to be 'extraordinary circumstances' under passenger rights rules, meaning passengers are unlikely to be entitled to compensation, though airlines should still look after them. The CAA reminded airlines of obligations including offering refunds, re-routing at the earliest opportunity or at a later date, and providing meals, refreshments and…

    Q&A on the Affordable Housing Act: short-term rentals and housing stress

    The European Commission published a Q&A on the Affordable Housing Act, explaining its background and short-term rental impact. A June 2025 Eurobarometer found 40% of Europeans see affordable housing as an immediate and urgent problem where they live, rising to 51% in cities. Between 2018 and 2024, short-term rental activity across the four major platforms grew 93%.
