ALL easyjet flights to/from Edinburgh tomorrow morning (Tuesday 24th May 2011) have been cancelled due to the Ash Cloud.

Re: Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

It's good to see both Thomson's and Jet2 are still operating albeit from another airport. At least it wont be a total disappointment for those wishing to jet off on their holiday.

Found this on BBC website if anyone is interested

Computer 'glitch' causes flight delays at Edinburgh Airport
A "glitch" which shut down all the computer systems at Edinburgh Airport caused "massive disruption" and some flight delays.

BAA said the problem had been caused by a hardware fault which saw the check-in desks and boarding screens fail for almost three hours.

Edinburgh Airport said there was "congestion" as passengers had to be checked in manually from 07:30.

Flights were also delayed as passengers did not know which gates to go to.

The problem was fixed at about 10:00.

A BAA spokesman said: "We had a slight issue this morning with the network which meant that we lost some computer services.

"It did not cause any cancellations or any great delays, but it did cause some queuing in the check in area between 7am and 9am.

"Our team were on it and, following investigation, it was found to be a hardware fault that was sorted quickly."

He added: "We saw some flights delayed by about half an hour, and congestion in the check-in area which was cleared as soon as the fault was fixed."

Edinburgh Airport tweeted this earlier today:

Travel conditions in Scotland this morning mean that the airport & airlines do not have the critical mass of staff needed to run operations securely. The airport is therefore closed until this position is reviewed at 1000 today. We ask that passengers do not come to the airport unless their airline has confirmed that their flight is scheduled. The safety of our passengers and our staff are our priority, and we ask people to make safe decisions regarding their travel. #BeastFromTheEast
