Airlines around the world have canceled more than 25,000 flights from their August flight schedules, with around 60 percent of them in Europe.

Such a high number of cancellations comes in the wake of staff shortages and other issues facing airports in Europe and beyond, SchengenVisaInfo.com reports.

The latest data provided by Cirium shows that Europe is currently the most affected area. So far, a total of 15,788 flights scheduled to fly in August have been canceled in Europe.

However, although this is a high number of flight cancellations, it represents only two percent of the entire flight schedule to Europe in August.

According to Cirium, the largest number of flights for the month of August were canceled by Turkish Airlines. The latter canceled 4,408 takeoffs last week alone.

Turkish Airlines is followed by British Airways with 3,600 canceled flights, easyJet with 2,045 canceled flights, Lufthansa with 1,888 canceled flights and Wizz Air with 1,256 canceled flights./euronews
