It's thought that staffing issues at Glasgow Airport meant the route was changed to the South Ayrshire port.
The initial news had sparked panic among some sets of fans, who took to forums when they saw the cancellations.
One wrote: "There is a 5am flight just being cancelled".
When one pointed it out wasn't a flight being used by many fans within that group, another replied: "I think the point is a flight is cancelled- which cause panic for Bears regardless of who chartered the flight - many on here are probably on this flight".
