- Scotland's busiest airports, Glasgow and Edinburgh, experienced temporary jet fuel shortages over the weekend, leading to flight disruptions.
- The shortages on Sunday, 31 May, were attributed to a staffing issue with one fuel supplier, rather than wider geopolitical conflicts.
- While some flights were delayed, with some needing to refuel at other UK airports, there were no widespread cancellations or major operational disruptions.
- Airport spokespersons confirmed that fuel deliveries have since resumed, and stock levels are returning to normal at both locations.
- Airlines like Tui reportedly made unscheduled stops at airports such as Prestwick and Manchester to refuel flights departing from Glasgow and Edinburgh.
