"We appreciate your patience while VD checks are in progress" "Volcanic dust!" Heathrow departure delayed. 19 April 2010

- Description
A group of travellers waiting patiently at the airport are startled to hear that there is a hold-up while VD checks are in progress. 'VD' more usually means 'venereal disease' but in this instance means 'volcanic dust'. Refers to the air travel delays because of the eruption of the Iceland volcano, Eyjafjallajokull. Planes were grounded for six days from 14th to 20th of April throughout Europe which meant that passengers could not travel to or from Europe over this time.
