In April 2010, a group of 14- and 15-year-old students from Loughborough, in the UK, went to Iceland on a school trip. They wanted to see things they studied in their Geography lessons at school so they visited an area which has a lot of active volcanoes. However, in the middle of the night on Tuesday 13th April the Eyjafjallajökull volcano began to erupt. Emergency services woke up the students and their teachers in their hotel at 4am. They didn’t have time to get dressed and left in their pyjamas. A bus took them to Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland, where they were safe. When Eyjafjallajökull erupted, it affected people all over the world. In the local area 800 people left their homes immediately because of floods from local rivers and dangerous smoke and gases. The volcano also sent a big cloud of ash 8km up into the air. This was dangerous for planes because the pilots couldn’t see in the ash cloud. Many countries in Europe, including the UK, France, Sweden and Norway, closed their airports for many days in April. Thousands of travellers around the world couldn’t get home. They slept in airports or tried to get to their destinations by car, train, bus or even taxi. Icelandic volcanoes are very active. When the volcano Laki erupted for eight months in 1783, almost two million people died around the world. It was the worst volcanic eruptions in history.
