The Scottish Government has announced the full restoration of Air Services between the Western and Northern Isles, and Inverness.
The Regional air services, operated by Loganair, are expected to return to normal from the 26th October following a £1m investment from Scottish Government to Highlands and Islands Airports Ltd. Loganair reduced these vital lifeline services last month, but these will now be reinstated with more frequent vital connections from Inverness to Stornoway, Kirkwall and Sumburgh.
Staying with Scottish Airports, they are to improve their Accessibility Requirements due to a large increase in demand.
The UK’s aviation regulator has published its Annual Airport Accessibility Report for 2025/26, which assesses the quality of assistance services provided to disabled passengers and those with reduced mobility at the UK's largest airports. Scottish Airports were ranked at levels where assistance has been provided. Inverness Airport was ranked as ‘Good’ with Edinburgh Airport now ranked as ‘Very good’ having been previously judged as ‘Needing improvement’.
