	Description:		Images of queues, huge piles of luggage and even pilots loading their planes with cargo have plagued the media throughout the world. Airports have been in chaos for months as they have attempted to re-emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic, with Europe, the UK and the USA all having suffered the worst of the effects so far. Flight cancelations have played havoc with business travellers and holiday makers alike, and the problem only appears to be getting worse as a whole raft of flights have recently been cancelled in the UK. All this begs the question, Why are things so bad right now and how do we fix the situation? So this week on the inquiry we ask, Will air travel ever return to normal? Producer: Ravi Naik and Christopher Blake Technical Producer: Richard Hannaford Editor: Tara McDermott Production Coordinator Brenda Brown (Flight boards at the height of the summer rush July 2022 Frankfurt Airport, Germany/credit: BBC images)
