Scots travel chaos as airport runways shut cancelling flights in amber snow warning

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Air passengers travelling to and from Scotland have been affected by the snow and plunging temperatures on Friday, with dozens of flights cancelled, delayed or diverted - and one airport closing altogether.A Met Office amber warning for snow is in place in parts of the country bringing road, rail and air traffic to a standstill.In Tayside, Dundee Airport bosses closed its doors at around 10am on Friday due to the snow and ice, saying they hoped to reopen "once the weather has cleared".Passengers flying into Glasgow Airport have already faced cancellations and diversions, with the 7.35am service from Dublin this morning landing instead in Edinburgh.Since then Aer Lingus, British Airways, easyJet and Loganair have all cancelled flights to Glasgow, leaving holiday-makers and other travellers stranded.A KLM flight from Amsterdam and a Ryanair plane from Krakow are the latest to be diverted to Edinburgh Airport, according to the live arrivals board in Glasgow.Services departing Glasgow for London, Belfast, Dublin, Stornoway and other destinations have also announced cancellations or delays.One couple returning from the Dominican Republic to Glasgow, via London Gatwick, told the Record: "British Airways have offered us a flight to Edinburgh this evening - but our car is in Glasgow at the airport car park."We’re thinking we might have to just book a hotel in London then fly up to Glasgow tomorrow instead, otherwise we have to make our way from Edinburgh to Glasgow anyway, which seems just as much hassle."We are still waiting on more advice.

We may possibly get a flight from London City to Edinburgh at 6:10pm, then a taxi to get our car in Glasgow."Glasgow Airport said work had been ongoing since midnight to clear runways and
