KLM are doubling the number of flights to AMS

KLM flights from the city to go double Dutch | Inverness Courier | News

New flight is a night stopper arr 2145 and dep 0620 on a E190

[TelsBoy]

Very good news, twice daily is great as one flight a day at lunchtime (e.g. the 'eefrow link) isn't much use for many.


Even more useful for international connections from Schnecky

TelsBoy. I have sent you a private message.

Are these flights operated by KLM metal, or do they use Flybe frames?

[fjencl]

KLM Metal, think flybe stopped the route in 2016

[inOban]

Except that checking on Planespotters.net, KLM don't have anything smaller than a 737, so they must be wet-leasing from someone..

[Wycombe]

It'll be CityHopper presumably, with an old Fokker or a newer Embraer.

[VickersVicount]

who was it used to complain about the terms 'metal' and 'frames' instead if just 'aircraft' ?!

[inOban]

Wycombe. Apologies for my ignorance.

[Richard Taylor]

The F70 is being retired by KLM this year, so I would think it'll be an E75. This is where the 5th ABZ weekday rotation has been transferred to for S17.

Great news for INV.

[tommynwi]

It does state on scr1's post that it will be operated by E190.

[Richard Taylor]

Even better news for INV!

What year round European destinations could work for a based 737 or A320 type aircraft out of Inverness airport.

Do people of the highlands prefer to drive all the way to Glasgow and Edinburgh or even Aberdeen to get direct flights to there summer/winter holiday destinations each year.......

Just wondered what people's thoughts were..........

[SWBKCB]

My thought would there that the people of the highlands don't prefer to drive all the way to Glasgow and Edinburgh but that there aren't enough of them to justify a based 737 or A320 type aircraft

[inOban]

All Edinburgh to Inverness trains call at Edinburgh Gateway. You can add on the tram when you buy your ticket. Of course for many routes you will need an overnight hotel at the beginning or end of your holiday.
