The new route is part of Loganair’s growing network from the airport, adding to its existing services, which include direct flights to Newcastle and Edinburgh.

Starting on 26 October, the new service will introduce frequent flights between the two cities, before moving to a daily service from March 2026.

Customers will also benefit from Loganair’s codeshare agreement with BA, opening up endless possibilities for international travel on a single ticket through Manchester Airport to the world.

Fares start from £72 one-way, offering greater convenience to customers than lengthy rail journeys and are a well-priced, practical alternative for those travelling between the regions.

Customers will benefit from Loganair’s signature services, including a 21kg total luggage allowance (15kg hold baggage and 6kg cabin baggage), family-friendly policies with discounts for children under 12, and the convenience of a locally based carrier providing reliable connectivity.

Earlier this year, Loganair was ranked second in the Which? annual customer survey of short-haul airlines, achieving a 72% customer score. The airline received a five-star rating for customer service and a four-star rating for booking, boarding, and cleanliness.

More recently, Loganair was named the most punctual for UK arrivals and departures in Q2 2025 by the UK Civil Aviation Authority, with 86% of its flights arriving and departing on time.

Those booking directly through Loganair’s website can also collect Avios, thanks to its partnership with the global travel rewards programme, via Loganair Loyalty.

Flights can be booked at loganair.co.uk or via local travel agents.
