New Weekend Air Service to Campbeltown Coming Summer 2013!

Postby mawex » Tue Feb 26, 2013 4:19 pm

Flybe has added a Sunday Glasgow-Campbeltown flight for the summer of 2013. The flight is a return flight on Sunday afternoon starting 16 June and ending 22 Sept. The flight leaves GLA at 17:15 and arrives at CAL at 18:00—the return from CAL to GLA leaves at CAL 18:25 and arrives in GLA at 19:05. You can see the schedule at:

Having a weekend flight will help tourism and will give a useful option to local residents and others who travel to and from Campbeltown whether for business or leisure. The more utilization this new flight gets, the more likely that it will be continued in the future and that additional service will be added-- so let's do what we can to make it successful! :D

Seems to fall a bit short of the weekend service hoped for, though I suppose it makes a Friday/Sunday weekend trip feasible in either direction. Pity there's no proposal for a Saturday service though.

I agree that it would be better to have 7 day service, but it is a start and if well used, makes the case for additonal flights-- would be great to have two return filghts every day of the week!
