Exeter to Edinburgh flights doubled

LoganAir ups Devon-to-Scotland service

More flights connecting Devon to Scotland are planned for next year.

Scottish airline LogainAir is increasing services between Edinburgh and Exeter in response to growing customer demand, with tickets for the summer timetable already on sale.
 
From June, a twice-daily Edinburgh service will operate on weekdays, and daily at weekends.

Prices start from £79.
 
A mid-week early morning flight will land in Exeter at 0750 and in Edinburgh at 0945, for a full day of business or leisure before returning on the evening service, taking off from Exeter at 1955 and from Edinburgh at 1800. 
 
Luke Lovegrove, chief commercial officer at Loganair, said: “Loganair has experienced its busiest summer ever this year, carrying a record number of customers across the UK and Europe and we expect Summer 2023 to be no different.
 
Loganair will additionally increase its services across flights from Edinburgh to Southampton and Norway’s capital Bergen, while its Glasgow – Southampton service will also see a boost across daily operations.

Stephen Wiltshire, managing director of Exeter Airport, said: “Edinburgh is a popular route from Exeter and this is great news for passengers. Loganair’s increased frequency means double daily flights on weekdays, which will appeal to business travellers in particular, giving them a full day in Edinburgh.

"And combined with the daily weekend service that means even more choice for leisure passengers too.”
