Loganair steps up expansion plans

Future plans for 2018 including the first non-stop services linking Manchester with the three main Scottish islands of Shetland, Orkney and the Western Isles were unveiled by Loganair last week. 

The emphasis was firmly on expansion as the carrier, dubbed “Scotland’s Airline”, was launching its schedule for its first full summer of flying under its own name and brand in recent years. 

Loganair is also planning a new three-times-weekly jet service linking Manchester and Inverness with Bergen. Operating year-round, it will be Inverness’s second regular international service, joining Loganair’s existing flights to Bergen from Glasgow, Shetland and Orkney.

The Scottish islands development will see weekly services to Stornoway and Sumburgh join twice-weekly flights from Manchester to Kirkwall as part of Loganair’s network.  

New flights will also operate over the summer between Norwich and Inverness; from Norwich to the Isle of Man, and from Glasgow to Guernsey, where a new Saturday service from 26 May will mark Scotland’s only direct link to the second largest of the Channel Islands.

Managing director Jonathan Hinkles said: “We’re delighted to be launching a brand new range of services. Since we started flying under our own name again we’ve seen a tremendous response to Loganair’s strong Scottish identity and the friendly service we offer.”
