LONDON // Airports and rail terminals in major European transport hubs say many services are running, but there are still likely to be cancellations and delays following the wintry weather that caused days of travel chaos.
London's Heathrow Airport said Wednesday that dozens of flights would depart, while Germany's Frankfurt airport confirmed schedules were slowly returning to normal.
Frankfurt said about 70 flights were cancelled out of a planned daily total of about 1,300, compared with 550 cancellations on Tuesday.
Eurostar said train services between Britain and continental Europe were operating a near-normal schedule, but asked only customers with tickets to show up at terminals after thousands crowded ticket halls earlier this week.
Weather forecasters predicted fresh snow across England and Wales, though not in London.

Pupils in Abu Dhabi are learning the importance of being active, eating well and leading a healthy lifestyle now and throughout adulthood, thanks to a newly launched programme 'Healthy Lifestyle'.
As part of the Healthy Lifestyle programme, specially trained coaches from City Football Schools, along with Healthpoint physicians have visited schools throughout Abu Dhabi to give fun and interactive lessons on working out regularly, making the right food choices, getting enough sleep and staying hydrated, just like their favourite footballers.
Organised by Manchester City FC and Healthpoint, Manchester City FC’s regional healthcare partner and part of Mubadala’s healthcare network, the ‘Healthy Lifestyle’ programme will visit 15 schools, meeting around 1,000 youngsters over the next five months.
Designed to give pupils all the information they need to improve their diet and fitness habits at home, at school and as they grow up, coaches from City Football Schools will work alongside teachers to lead the youngsters through a series of fun, creative and educational classes as well as activities, including playing football and other games.
Dr Mai Ahmed Al Jaber, head of public health at Healthpoint, said: “The programme has different aspects - diet, exercise, sleep and mental well-being. By having a focus on each of those and delivering information in a way that children can absorb easily it can help to address childhood obesity."
