Ash unlikely to hit Scots holiday weekend travellers


Bank holiday travel in Scotland is unlikely to be disrupted by ash from an erupting volcano in Iceland.

Flights were grounded around the country on Tuesday and Wednesday when a cloud of ash from the Grimsvotn volcano drifted into Scottish airspace.

Met Office forecasts showed that high density volcanic ash was no longer an immediate threat over the UK.
