Loganair flying high with Norwegian tie-up


Wideroe offers access to the whole of Norway, with more than 40 Norwegian and eight international destinations on its route map.
The “interline” deal between the Scottish airline and its Norwegian counterpart means that those living in Scotland can fly on Loganair’s direct flights from Edinburgh to Bergen and Stavanger, then “seamlessly one-stop connect” to eight Norwegian locations.

Among those targeted by the tie-up are workers in the energy and marine industries, as well as travellers looking to explore more of Scandinavia.

“It’s also great news for those in the marine and energy sectors who have interests in Scotland and Norway.”
