A Glasgow airline has warned of delays as airspace has been hit by an air traffic control failure.

Loganair warned customers on X, formally known as Twitter, that flights may be subject to delays due to a network-wide failure.

A spokesperson said: “There has been a network-wide failure of UK air traffic control computer systems this morning.

“Although we are hopeful of being able to operate most intra-Scotland flights on the basis of local co-ordination and with a minimum of disruption, north-south and international flights may be subject to delays.

“If you are flying with us today, please check our website for the latest information about your flight before setting off for the airport.”

In a statement, National Air Traffic Services (NATS), which provides air traffic control services in the UK, said: “We are currently experiencing a technical issue and have applied traffic flow restrictions to maintain safety.

“Engineers are working to find and fix the fault.

“We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.”

A spokesman for AGS Airports said: "Air traffic control provider NATS is currently experiencing a technical issue across its UK-wide airspace network.

“It is anticipated that services operating to and from our airports will be impacted.

“We would ask passengers to check with their individual airlines for updates."
