Edinburgh Airport Reopens After Security Alert

Edinburgh Airport reopened on Saturday morning. This followed a security alert that caused parts of the terminal to be evacuated on Friday night.

Police found a "potentially suspicious package" around 6:50 PM on Friday. An explosives team was called to investigate the item.

As a safety measure, an evacuation was ordered, and roads near the airport were closed. This caused significant disruption for many travelers.

The airport confirmed its reopening around 3 AM on Saturday. Specialist teams had completed their investigations and given the all-clear.

While the airport is open, some flights may still face delays today. Staff are working hard to help passengers and return to normal operations.
