Airport operator BAA, which controls Glasgow Airport in Scotland, has said that most flights are now operating normally following an attempted car bombing at the airport on Saturday (30 June).
BAA said on Monday morning (2 July) that both terminals of Glasgow Airport are functioning as normal, but that some delays and cancellations may arise. Travellers are being advised to contact their airline before leaving for the airport, to confirm the status of their flight.
Two men drove a Jeep Cherokee into the doors of Glasgow Airport's main terminal on Saturday afternoon, causing a fire. Two suspects were arrested by police.
The incident led to the airport being closed with security measures being increased at airports across the UK. This includes extra police patrols and restrictions on cars near to the terminal buildings.
Glasgow Airport expects to handle 35,000 departing and arriving passengers on Monday.
