Two flights bound for Edinburgh Airport were forced to redirect to Glasgow in the early hours of Tuesday morning. Ryanair and Jet2 passengers landed at the other end of the M8 around 3am, due to "planned runway maintenance" at Edinburgh Airport.
Fuming travellers on the Ryanair flight from Malaga claimed that no ground assistance was offered for two hours after their landing while Jet2 passengers arriving from Tenerife were also affected.
An Edinburgh Airport spokesperson said the maintenance was scheduled to have minimal disruption to passengers, and originally only impacted the Jet2 flight from Tenerife.
