Loganair will add its first-ever Orkney-London service next summer as part of plans to expand its route network from the islands.
Within the airline’s schedule for next summer, Orkney will also see Edinburgh routes restored to pre-pandemic levels, while its service to Fair Isle will be re-established for the first time since March 2019. Orkney’s international weekly service to Bergen will also recommence.
Commencing from 4 April 2023, the new service to London City will operate twice weekly on Tuesdays and Fridays.
The new same-flight service stops over in Dundee en route, however passengers are not required to leave the plane, before landing in London City.
Luke Lovegrove, chief commercial officer at Loganair, said: "The new service to London City, as well as the increase in service to Edinburgh, the reinstated route to Fair Isle and the international connection to Bergen bolsters connectivity for the local community."
