A 48-hour strike due to go ahead at Glasgow Airport next week has been called off, a spokesman has said.

About 100 workers had been set to take part in the industrial action next Thursday in a dispute over pay.

Members of the Unite union due to walk out had included airside support officers, engineers and managers.

The Glasgow Airport spokesman said: “We have been informed by Unite that the planned industrial action for 24 to 26 July has been suspended to allow for further dialogue regarding our pay offer of 4%.”

The industrial action would have fallen during the traditional Glasgow Fair fortnight and the airport’s busy summer months.

These are the first summer holidays since the airport was bought over by AviAlliance.

The company completed a deal to buy AGS – the owners of Glasgow, Aberdeen and Southampton airports – in January for £1.53bn.

Unite has been contacted for comment.
