Edinburgh Airport passenger delays twice as long compared to pre-pandemic levels

Passengers at Edinburgh Airport are facing double the length of delays compared to pre- pandemic levels while short-notice cancellations tripled at Glasgow Airport, stats showed.

The data revealed passengers flying from Edinburgh suffered the third worst UK airport delays in June, which averaged 26 minutes and were more than twice as long as pre-pandemic at 116%, compared to a national average of 71%.

The report from aviation analytics firm Cirium showed cancellations are having a greater impact on travel because airlines are operating around one quarter fewer flights than in 2019.
