Flybe franchise partner, Eastern Airways, is introducing new Sunday flights on its route between Aberdeen and Wick John O’Groats Airport.
The new Sunday service will help to provide weekend break opportunities and assist business passengers travelling to their destination on a Sunday ready for an early start on Mondays. Flights are now available to book for travel from 11 March 2018.
Sunday services to Wick John O’Groats will depart Aberdeen at 5.05pm, landing in Wick at 5.40pm. Flights will leave Wick on Sundays at 6.05pm, arriving in Aberdeen at 6.40pm.
The UK regional airline first started operating the Wick – Aberdeen route in 2001 and provides 22 flights a week between the far north of Scotland and Aberdeen.
In October 2017, Eastern Airways entered into a new partnership with Flybe. All Eastern Airways flights are bookable at Flybe.com and fares on the Aberdeen-Wick route start from £83.99 one way, including taxes and charges. Passengers using the route receive complimentary drinks and snacks on board and up to 23kg of free hold baggage.

Sunday flights will also benefit business travellers who can now reach Wick and Aberdeen in advance for early Monday morning meetings. The new Sunday services also connect onto a network of services to and from Aberdeen, including Manchester, Birmingham and London Heathrow.”
Inglis Lyon, Managing Director of Highlands and Islands Airports, said: “The new Sunday service is a welcome addition for passengers flying to and from Wick and it further improves connectivity for communities in Caithness and the far north of Scotland.
