Dec. 5 (UPI) -- Flights resumed taking off and landing at Edinburgh Airport after an air traffic control IT outage forced the closure of the runway for around an hour on Friday morning.
The glitch, which the airport said was localized and not related to a wider internet outage involving Cloudflare that took out websites and apps, saw domestic and international flights to and from destinations including London, Birmingham, Belfast, Amsterdam and Frankfurt canceled, diverted or delayed.
British Airways and budget carriers Easyjet and Ryanair were among the airlines impacted.
Transatlantic services operated by United Airlines and Delta Air Lines were also affected, with the Delta flight from New York forced to reroute to Dublin.
