00:00I just landed here at Porto Airport in Portugal and as you can see on the board behind me there
00:05is some electricity. Many of those flights are delayed by several hours already. If I turn around
00:11then the coffee shop behind me is continuing to serve what they have in the fridges. There's no
00:15electricity there and they're doing all of their accounting by hand. The only people who seem at
00:20all concerned are the mobile phone salesmen who are guarding what's in their store. They too don't
00:25have any network at the moment or any electricity. I would say the situation is calm but confused
00:32as people wait for more information. Jeremy Wilkes at Porto Airport for your news.
