FLIGHTS linking Glasgow and Donegal are being re-launched by an airline.

Loganair is to re-introduce the service following the current operator Stobart Air’s decision to withdraw the flight on March 23.

The new service will take off on Sunday March 25, with three return flights per week all year round on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.

Additional summer flights will operate on Wednesdays between June 27 and September 19 and Saturdays from 26 May to 3 November with a Saturday service at Easter from March 31 until April 14.

Kay Ryan, Loganair’s Commercial Director, said: “We’re delighted to be returning to Donegal - a region where the airline has a history of service stretching across 30 years.”

“We’re also pleased to able to reassure the local community that there will be complete continuity when the current route provider ceases in March - without any break in service.”

“This is an extremely important link which will help families stay connected, travel between the two destinations on holiday or act as a convenient transport option for football fans heading to Glasgow.”
