Air passengers face more disruption as the Icelandic volcanic ash cloud causes further delays and cancellations.

Budget airline Ryanair says it has cancelled dozens of flights to and from destinations in Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands.

Rival carrier easyJet has also warned there could be more disruption to flights to and from France, Spain, Portugal and Gibraltar.

BAA says all of its airports are open and operating normal schedules, but has warned of delays to transatlantic services and cancellations by airlines.

Latest meteorological charts show the ash cloud extending across the Atlantic into Spain and Portugal, and further east over France.

Ryanair said on its website: "Based on current Euro Control and meteorological forecasts Ryanair expects airspace over Faro (Portugal) and Madrid to be closed/restricted during Tuesday May 11."

Airports and airlines continue to urge passengers to check the latest information before travelling to their airport.
