All flights scheduled to depart and arrive at the Katunayake International Airport from London, Paris, Frankfurt and Rome have been cancelled today as a result of the volcanic ash over the skies of Europe, Airport and Sri Lankan airlines authorities told Daily Mirror online.

More than 64,000 European and International flights were cancelled since ash clouds from Volcano Eyjafjallajoekull posed a threat to planes over the air in Europe during the past weeks.
