A no-fly zone has been imposed by the Civil Aviation Authority from 1300 until 1900 BST.
East Midlands, Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Doncaster, Humberside and Carlisle airports are all affected.
A spokesman for Liverpool John Lennon Airport said that 30 flights have been affected there.
He advised passengers to check with their airline before travelling.
A Manchester Airport spokesperson said: "Long-range forecasts indicate that the ash cloud may cause further disruption into tomorrow but this is not certain.
"If passengers who are planning to travel to or from Manchester Airport over the coming days are concerned about their flight, please check with your airline or monitor our website for official updates.
"There is absolutely no official suggestion or prediction that the prolonged, continent-wide airspace restrictions experienced in April are about to occur again.
"We would like to sincerely apologise to passengers travelling today for the inconvenience that this will cause."
