Eruption and Exasperation: The Mount Etna Airport Shutdown The Mediterranean skies have been disrupted by the ongoing eruption of Mount Etna, Europe's tallest volcano.
As Sicily's busiest airport, Vincenzo Bellini Airport in Catania, grinds to a halt due to volcanic ash, hundreds of travelers are left stranded and frustrated.
The latest closure is the most severe disruption to air travel at the airport in over two decades, with flights suspended until at least 2 pm local time on Saturday.
