A technical problem that caused delays and cancellations to some flights at Stornoway Airport on Thursday has been resolved.

Highlands and Islands Airports Limited (Hial) had advised passengers to contact their airline for the latest information.

The company said engineers had since fixed an issue with Stornoway's ground base navigational equipment.

Stornoway is one of the busiest of Hial's 11 regional airports, with 105,007 passengers passing through the site last year.
