A statement on the airport website said: "Our teams have been working overnight to return operations to LBA. The runway is clear, arrivals and departures have resumed. Most of last night’s arriving flights were unfortunately diverted due to the deteriorating weather.
"Our airline partners now need to reposition aircraft and crew back to LBA, disruption to some of today’s flight schedule is expected. Customers are advised to check with their airline for the latest updates and revised departure timings before travelling to LBA. Customers on delayed arrivals back to LBA who are parked in an official LBA car park, will not incur additional overstay charges upon exit.
"There is no need to contact us or amend your booking, upon your return, please proceed to the exit barrier as usual.
