The Scottish Passenger Agents’ Association (SPAA) has urged the government to intervene and help Loganair during the coronavirus crisis. 

Loganair will apply for government aid during the coronavirus crisis

On 30 March, Jonathan Hinkles, chief executive of Britain’s largest regional airline, has confirmed it will seek state aid to weather the coronavirus storm.

Joanne Dooey, president of SPAA, highlighted the “importance” of Loganair’s operations to Scotland. 


“It should not be forgotten that, in addition to flying passengers, Loganair also transports essential medicines, mail and newspapers which would not otherwise reach those who need them,” said Dooey.
