Jet2 has alerted travellers that traffic restrictions could affect access to the East Midlands Airport this week.
Motorists heading to East Midlands Airport are being warned of significant overnight road closures affecting key access routes during weekday nights.
Two key slip roads will be affected during these overnight closures, Jet2 shared in a statement.
“We wanted to advise you of road closures surrounding East Midlands Airport, from November 4 to 11, between the hours of 20:00 to 05:00, Monday to Friday,” the statement read.

The first closure impacts the route connecting the Moto services roundabout to the M1 and A42. The second affects the slip road leading from the M1 to the A42.
Passengers are advised to allow additional time for their airport journeys during the closure period. The airport has confirmed all flights will continue to operate as scheduled.
To avoid disruptions, travellers are advised to arrive at least two hours before their scheduled departure time. Check-in desks close 40 minutes before departure.
Passengers can check the latest flight information by entering their flight number or route on the airport’s website.
This should be done at least 12 hours before the scheduled departure time, the airline advised.
“In the event of flight disruption our dedicated Operations teams are working hard behind the scenes at our UK-based HQ to get you on your way as soon as possible,” Jet2 said.
“Further information can be found by using the search panel by entering your flight number or route.”

The warning comes days after the budget airline expanded its line-up from various UK airports.
Budapest, Krakow, Prague, Paris and Vienna are the latest destinations to join the operator’s repertoire.
The expansion brings the total number of sun and city destinations to 62, representing the airline and tour operator’s largest summer offering to date.
The early launch comes in response to strong demand from UK holidaymakers to secure their summer plans in advance.
