Loganair launches new Scotland-Wales air link
Loganair is boosting regional connectivity for the summer with a new route linking the capital cities of Scotland and Wales.
The service between Edinburgh and Cardiff starts on 2 August, with tickets now on sale.
Flights will be operated by Loganair’s 49-seat Embraer 145 regional jets, with prices for the 85-minute trip starting at £49.99 one way including taxes and charges.
All Loganair fares include a free checked baggage allowance.
Loganair will offer five flights per week in each direction.
The Cardiff service adds to the eight others already flown from Edinburgh by Loganair, including Southampton, Newquay and the Isle of Man.
"I know many of our customers – both business and leisure – have been waiting for this service to resume, and we are very pleased to be able to add Cardiff to our Edinburgh roster," said Kay Ryan, Loganair’s chief commercial officer.
"Importantly, these services fill gaps left by the collapse of Flybe, with almost every lost domestic destination now being restored by Loganair and other carriers over the coming months."
