Planes heading for Bristol, Dublin and London ended up in Paris, as Edinburgh-bound planes landed in Cologne.
Some on domestic routes had left their passports at home, meaning they had to sleep on terminal floors overnight.
One flight from Budapest returned to Hungary, via Manchester, after aborting several landings at Stansted Airport.
