First time poster here but long time lurker. I'm booked to fly on EK28 from GLA tomorrow (3rd March) and I've been nervously keeping a close eye on the situation since EK were offering to rebook any flights between 28th Feb and 3rd Mar. I really didn't want to have to rebook because it would throw out my ownward travel so I've stuck it out.
It looks like the airport has reopened and according to the departures page EK are operating 3 flights today, at 13:00, 13:05 and 16:00 which should help clear some of the backlog. I've completed OLCI and the chauffeur drive company have confirmed pick up (albeit from a main road rather than get stuck in the snow trying to get to my door). I'll likely spend the next 24 hours glued to the BBC Weather website but so far so good.
