Around 600 unclaimed bags are still to be processed at Edinburgh Airport following a huge hold-up.
Menzies Aviation said the total has reduced since Tuesday, with the company joining Swissport in a bid to tackle their way through a backlog of luggage. Menzies said the 600 remaining bags would be processed "relatively quickly" - and admitted a lack of staff throughout the whole aviation industry has made it difficult to provide a flawless service while they train new recruits, reports The Scottish Daily Express.
Corporate affairs director John Geddes admitted the company had "dropped the ball" by failing to communicate with passengers, which he also said was unacceptable. However, Mr Geddes was unable to give an accurate timeline on when the process would revert back to normal or how long the company's temporary storage facility in Ingliston would be needed.
