11.06.10
The volcanic ash crisis and strike by BA cabin crew hit passengers at Glasgow Airport worse than BAA's other two Scottish airports last month. At Glasgow passengers were down 13.7% on the same month last year, whilst Edinburgh saw a drop of 11.6% and Aberdeen 9.9%.
In total, BAA's three Scottish airports handled over 1.5 million passengers in the month - a drop of 12.1% on last year. The airport operator said without the disruption passengers would have increased by 0.4% at its six UK airports.
There was a fall of 7.1% at the Scottish airports in the year to the end of May, with Glasgow again seeing the biggest annual fall - down 11.7%. At Edinburgh passengers were down 2.3% and at Aberdeen down 9.5%.
