EAST Midlands Airport is now open.
Despite heavy overnight snowfall which forced the airport to close this morning and six flights to be cancelled, the runways were declared open 1pm.
There have been six flight cancellations this morning. These were all Ryan Air flights travelling to Bergerac, Palma de Mallorca, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Berlin and Barcelona.
On Saturday a further five flights were cancelled - these were Flybe flights to Belfast, Paris and three more Ryan Air flights to Fuerteventura, Lanzarote and Palma.
Although there were 11 flights cancelled across the two days many more flights have been delayed.
A spokesman for the airport said: "Obviously the cancellations have had a knock on effect and many flights have been delayed.
"But for today the weather situation has slightly lifted and this has allowed to re-open the runways.
"If people are flying today it is still advisable to check with their airline for flight information."
