GLA controllers earning their crust well and truly today as our resident afternoon arrivals start to appear.
edit:
Looks like we're also getting EW from CGN.

FR from PMI too. Thought that would head for PIK.

Welcome back SAS. CRJ900 from ARN. :D
EDI reopening (but for how long!!) so a very late United UAL161 not coming into its ancestral home

Classic private equity - put off the big expenditure as far as possible

Interesting that EDI flight arrivals shows a number of the diverted flights as CANCELLED giving the immediate impression that it is the airline's fault!

I notice that SAS just flew back to Stockholm without going to EDI.

Eurowings have also had to cancel a return flight from Cologne to Bologna due to the late arrival of the inbound aircraft which presumably has impacted crew hours as well.

As I recall the runway resurfacing is planned for completion January 2026 at a cost of £24 million! Quite a problem for them!

Just a hunch, but, Im sure they will have it sorted before you can say Divert.
