Loganair has cancelled flights ahead of strike action by air traffic controllers at six Scottish airports.
ATC staff are to stage a second 24-hour strike on June 12 over a pay dispute with Highlands and Islands Airports Ltd (HIAL) which operates the airports.
Six airports – Benbecula, Dundee, Inverness, Kirkwall, Stornoway and Sumburgh – were also closed by a 24-hour strike last Thursday.
Loganair said it will be cancelling services to and from all six airports on June 12 and changes will also apply to certain Loganair schedules on the day before and the day after the stoppage.
It said there will be some extra services on affected routes on these dates to enable customers to replan their journeys.
All customers on flights cancelled as a result of the dispute will receive a notification.
Loganair managing director Jonathan Hinkles said: "We regret this ongoing dispute by air traffic control staff is leading to further disruption to Loganair’s customers.~~We will do all that we reasonably can to help them re-plan their journeys on alternative flights and days.
"The behaviour of the Prospect union is increasingly bizarre.~Its full-time official met with MSPs for a briefing at the Scottish Parliament yesterday and made no mention of a new strike date, yet one was announced within an hour of the end of that session.~
“It begs the question as to who is really pulling the strings in this dispute.~~ It was also highlighted that a new offer was expected from HIAL on which the union would need to consult its members.~We warmly welcome that opportunity for the action to be resolved, but regrettably, our customers are faced with another day of travel disruption in the meantime."
