TWO planned strikes at Glasgow Airport have been suspended.

Unite the union had planned walk-outs at the Paisley terminal on Friday and Thursday, July 11, amid a dispute over pay and pensions, but these have now been cancelled. 

Airport chiefs said this will allow Unite to conduct a consultative ballot with its members on an 'improved offer'.

A spokesperson for Glasgow Airport said: “Following further talks, Unite has agreed to suspend the planned industrial action for Friday and Thursday, July 11.

"This is to allow Unite to conduct a consultative ballot with its members on our improved offer which we hope will result in a positive outcome.

"The ballot will be conducted between tomorrow and Tuesday.”
