Direct News Source

20-Apr-2010 Scottish airports began operating flights again this morning as the volcanic ash cloud moved away and the Scottish Government launched a Homecoming Helpline to smooth the path of returning travellers.

The service will be available to travellers stranded overseas, and to concerned relatives calling from this country and will complement the FCO helpline which will remain the main point of contact for travellers needing specific assistance while overseas.

A flight to Stornoway took off from Glasgow Airport early this morning. All intending passengers are asked to check with their airlines before travelling.
