Glasgow Airport welcomes Loganair's first ATR aircraft in multimillion upgrade

Loganair is introducing its first ATR aircraft to Glasgow Airport as part of a multimillion investment to upgrade its fleet.

The new ATR-42-600 aircrafts are larger, quieter, and more efficient than the Saab 340s they replace and will operate on services linking Glasgow with Islay, Benbecula, Sumburgh and Donegal from July, followed by Kirkwall and Derry services from August.

The services will offer up to a 45pc increase in capacity with the airline's aim to offer lower fares. The introduction of the ATRs will also enable greater year-round connectivity to domestic and international destinations via Glasgow.
