The ash that spewed from Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano led to the closure of 75 per cent of European airspace, disrupting the travel plans of more than 10 million airline passengers.

Al Jazeera's Rory Challands travelled to Iceland to take a look back at the incident, and the effect it had on those on the ground.
