DELAYS to EasyJet flights to and from Edinburgh Airport have doubled in the first half of this year.

Planes were on average nearly 20 minutes late between January and June, compared with less than 11 minutes in the same period last year.

EasyJet bosses admitted the performance had been poor but said it had significantly improved in the past few months.
