Edinburgh flight from Dublin forced to land in Glasgow due to heavy fog

A flight from Dublin to Edinburgh was forced to land in Glasgow after more than an hour of circling the capital in heavy fog.

The Aer Lingus service between Ireland and Scotland took off more than 90 minutes late before being beaten back from its initial destination by inclement weather conditions on Monday evening.

The flight, operated by the firm's regional carrier Emerald Airlines, eventually landed shortly before 10pm on Monday evening - 50 miles from its intended landing point.
