The airline, which has previously operated from Stansted, will fly on Tuesdays and Saturdays from 1 June until 31 August to the archipelago, halfway between Iceland and Norway.
The 800-mile route will be Atlantic Airways’ second UK destination; it also serves Edinburgh twice-weekly on Mondays and Thursdays. The Faroe Islands Vagar airport is a 45-minute drive from the capital Torshavn.
The airline is offering a special £96 one-way rate for the first week of flying in June. Fares after this are from £120 one way, with those from Edinburgh from £200 return.
The Faroes are an autonomous territory of Denmark and the 54,000 people are outnumbered by 80,000 sheep.
