Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport has said air traffic is back to normal after days of disruptions.

Just a few outgoing flights were cancelled on Thursday, mostly because the destination airports in Germany and the United Kingdom are still trying to cope with snow masses.

Over the past week Europe's air traffic was severely disrupted by the heavy winter weather.

Schiphol is an import transit airport in Europe. As a result of cancellations and diverted flights, thousands of suitcases were left stranded at the Dutch hub.
