Stockholm Skavsta Airport Closure - 10th Feb 2010

Stockholm Skavsta Airport illegally closed their runway yesterday evening, without prior notice being given to either Ryanair or its passengers. As a result of this closure, one aircraft was forced to divert to Stockholm Arlanda airport, all passengers were transported by bus back to Stockholm Skavsta Airport. We sincerely apologise to all passengers affected by this unnecessary diversion which was outside of Ryanair's control.

All flights are expected to operate normally on the 11th February.

Can anyone shed any light on this, why a late night Ryanair flight was not allowed to land at Stockholm Skavsta and was diverted to Stockholm Arlanda on the 10th February 2010?
