Conveniently timed flights depart Edinburgh at 0700 and 1750, with return flights departing Stornoway at 0840 and 1930, enabling a full day's business for customers in both directions. Services to Glasgow will operate four times daily on weekdays, with up to four return services on Saturdays and two on a Sunday..
An improved schedule is introduced on flights between Inverness and Stornoway, with flights departing Stornoway at 0850, 1300 and 1800. Departures from Inverness are at 0740, 1150 and 1650 giving more choice and flexibility of timings.
Improved timings are introduced on Benbecula to Glasgow, with 24 flights per week including an earlier morning departure in both directions and two return flights every weekday.
Caithness
More seats are being added on the Edinburgh to Wick service, with a dedicated flight doubling the number of seats available for Caithness passengers. Departure from Edinburgh is at 1130 arriving in Wick at 1235, with the return service leaving Wick at 1300 and arriving in Edinburgh at 1405, increasing the number of connecting opportunities available to other destinations.
The current 6 times weekly service from Wick to Orkney will cease at the end of the winter timetable.

Direct daily flights to Edinburgh and Glasgow, 4 flights daily to Aberdeen and conveniently timed double daily services to Inverness and Shetland make this a bumper summer schedule for Orkney customers.
Shetland
Capacity on the key Aberdeen route will be increased by 12% this summer with up to 6 return flights on weekdays, plus a fourth service added on Saturdays during the peak season following strong demand in 2006.
Non-stop flights will serve both Edinburgh and Glasgow seven days a week and twice daily flights link Shetland with Orkney and Inverness.
Islay, Barra, Tiree and Campbeltown
Up to 3 flights a day to and from Islay give even more reasons to visit this enchanting Island, whether to sample the delights of its famous whisky distilleries or perhaps for a round of golf.

Isle of Man and City of Derry
Daily flights to Isle of Man from Edinburgh and Glasgow will operate year round for the first time, with extra flights to Glasgow during the peak summer season.

Jim Cameron, Chief Executive of Loganair said, "We are delighted to offer our largest ever schedule and network of flights within Scotland. The successful introduction of the Air Discount Scheme, new one-way fares and more direct flights is great news for our customers. There has never been a better time for visitors to sample the delights of the Scottish Highlands and Islands or for island residents to take to the air".
