THERE were tearful reunions at Glasgow Airport as the massacre at a Tunisian beach resort continued to send shockwaves through the world.

Families were visibly shaken and held onto each other after they arrived back on an afternoon flight from Enfidha.

One family was reunited with their young daughter who had been staying in the hotel next door to where the terror attack happened last Friday.

She was too distraught to speak to the media yesterday but her mother said through tears: “I’m just so glad that I’ve got my daughter back.”

Angela Allan, 35, from Yoker, held onto her husband and burst into tears in the arrival lounge.

She was returning from the Kanta resort in Sousse, near to where the shooting of 38 people, mainly tourists, by a gunman at a beach resort took place.

Angela had been on holiday with her two children and was glad to be reunited with her husband.

She said: "I'm just glad to be back home. I was away with my two kids and I'm just happy to be back in Scotland."

Scores of people were on the plane from Enfidha which arrived at 1.50pm.

Before they came through to the arrivals lounge they were handed NHS leaflets offering support to cope with the stress of a major incident.

They were also briefed by police officers who boarded their plane when it landed.

It was part of a package of measures to give holidaymakers help and assistance and also to see if there is any evidence to be gathered following the atrocity.

It is understood that police are not interviewing everybody who comes off the planes.

Charles Russell, 50, from Wishaw, was still in shock at what had happened. He was staying in Sousse with his wife and two children.

He said: "It all happened pretty quickly. I don't know what to say, we didn't hear a thing but we had friends in the next hotel to it who were shipped out pretty quickly.

"It was my wife's friend's daughter who was in the next hotel. They were flew out the same night. I was on the phone to the home office so I got information pretty quickly.

"The Tunisian people are devastated. We were going to stay on another week but we wanted to get home now."

Roseann Stewart, 58, from Newton Mearns, was on holiday with her daughter Leigh-Ann, 25. They were staying in the Taj Marhabba Hotel in Sousse.

Roseann described what had happened when their plane landed at Glasgow.

She said: "The police came on the plane and the air hostess made the announcement to say the police were there and we were going to get bussed into a separate area to be given a form to fill in and they were there if we wanted to speak to them about anything.

"We were given a leaflet. It's just if you've got any physical or mental effects from it. It's telling you to seek help and a GP.

"We got in on entry to the international lounge when we were asked to fill in a form."

Roseann described the the aftermath of the shooting.

She said: "There was a lot of hype in the hotel over it, people just panicking.

"A couple of hotel residents had said they had been there (at the scene of the shooting).

"They got off the bus and they were told to run in the opposite direction.

"We felt safe enough to stay. If it was at our hotel I think we would have came home.

"We were glad nothing else kicked off."

Devon McKenzie, 19, was met by her mum Jacqueline McKenzie as she arrived back in Glasgow with boyfriend Callum Cowan, 22 after a two week break in Tunisia.

They had been staying at the Sahara Beach resort, around 30 minutes away from where the atrocity took place.

Devon, from Rosyth, said there was chaos at the time of the shooting.

She said: "People were running around in our hotel.

"There were loads of people crying and running around. They were trying to get in contact with people back home. "Loads of people were saying it was four hotels that had been hit. It was getting more and more panicked.

"It's nice to be home to get away from everything that's happening over there."

Devon praised the staff at the resort.

She said: "Everyone was lovely. The Thomas Cook reps were very good, they were trying to make sure everyone was okay. They were letting everyone know there were flights home if they wanted it.

"I felt safe enough in my hotel."

Jacqueline, 51, said her other daughter, who is also at the Sahara Beach hotel, is due back on Wednesday.

She said: "It's quite emotional but it's great to see Devon home.

"I'm worried because my other daughter doesn't get home until Wednesday. She's trying to keep it as normal as possible.

"Friday afternoon was extremely worrying until I had contact with them."

Jacqueline said she felt for the families who had not yet had contact with their families over in Tunisia.

She said: "I don't think anyone could imagine how people feel. It's totally devastating. There's a lot of questions people asking why it's taking so long. But they've got to be 100% sure of who people are before they notify next of kins."

Bill Munro, Director of Barrhead Travel, said: “We had 47 passengers on the flight which arrived in Glasgow from Tunisia.

“Some of them may have been traumatised and some of them might not be met by any relatives but could need some immediate support and that’s why we were down there.

“We’ve been working through the night since Friday, phoning people up and giving as much advice and assistance that we can.

“With those who had to cut their holiday short we’re providing the information they need to rebook or cancel their holidays.

"At the moment with Thomas Cook you can get a full refund until July 12, Jet2 until August 3 and with Thomson until July 5 but this information is changing all the time.

“We’ve been working very hard to work with relatives, people intending on flying and contacting people in the resort.

“This will probably have an impact on tourism to some degree but as days pass people are adopting the stiff, British upper lip attitude and are saying that they’re not going to let the terrorists win so they are going to continue with their holidays and their plans.

“Some people are saying that lightning isn’t likely to strike twice and there’s a lot of security around so people should be safe in Tunisia and you might find that is most likely the safest place to be.”
