Because of this, passengers are turning up earlier than usual in a bid to get through security and ensure they have a hassle free trip.
The news of flight cancellations comes amid a fresh warning to passengers who have a passport which is set to expire soon.
New rules were introduced after the UK left the EU regarding how many months are needed to be on the passport to be able to travel.
Previously, UK residents just needed to have a passport that was in date to be able to travel to countries across Europe however the government website now states that people need at least three months left on their passport to be able to travel to an EU country stating it must be "valid for at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave."
But this isn't the standard for all airlines as Ryanair and easyJet - who are already caught up in flight cancellations - need six months.
But with all the cancellations and covid rules, should passengers be arriving to Glasgow airport early amid flight cancellations?
