Customs already present at Inverness for the international routes.

Is flybe still doing the AMS route? If so how will this news effect their flights? Didn't they code share with KLM?

TartinTon 8th Dec 2015 21:18

Can't see them hanging around as they're already in dispute with HIAL over unpaid bills allegedly. This is the reason being given for not announcing the DNDAMS route following the RACF announcements.

ATIS31 9th Dec 2015 18:31

Don't want to be negative but how are all these routes going to survive ?
2 x Amsterdam some days they can't even fill one flight ! Heathrow, London Luton, 2 x Gatwick a day. Someone is going to suffer might be busy in the summer months with tourists but come the winter....:= With all those flights they seriously need to upgrade their security and departures lounge. One Ezy Flight and the Lounge is cramped with not enough seating !

SealinkBF 10th Dec 2015 08:19

I don't think London routes are anywhere near capacity.
I think easyJet has it easy!

Strange with a departure to AMS at 1100 (KL) then 1115 (BE) but also note the aircraft used by each airline has a different base, so AMS to INV is a morning (KL) and afternoon departure (BE).

Wow all that money for 1 International flight !

ANGRYBEARD 5th Mar 2016 14:40

An excellent and much needed investment, to say the departures lounge got a little crowded when 2 or 3 flights were due out would be an understatement! Also having to navigate past those waiting their hold baggage at arrivals could also be fun. Look forward to an even easier experience when I need to go South.

fjencl 4th Apr 2016 14:29

What's the On time performance (OTP) for the EasyJet LGW service like, seems to me that whenever I look at the Inverness arrivals/departure boards they are late into Inverness.

CabinCrewe 4th Apr 2016 16:19

havent BE dropped AMS?

CabinCrewe 21st Apr 2016 17:34

PMI for 6/52 from INV next summer. Not sure if with TOM or not. Reinstatement of flights previously operated late 80's. There might even have been IBZ then too?

see they're building a station at the airport as well............

ATIS31 23rd Apr 2016 20:00

its a bit like dyce Station at ABZ at the opposite side of the airport from the terminal

Heathrow Harry 24th Apr 2016 12:00

I'm sure there 'll be a bus...............

CabinCrewe 3rd May 2016 12:42

first LHR flight today with water cannon salute and compulsory bagpipes.... Use it or lose it as they say...

Heathrow Harry 5th May 2016 16:04

It's not really "use it or lose it " these days into LHR - it's use it AND pay enough so you're not bottom of the list on BA's profitability spreadsheet -even if it makes a profit they'll ditch it if they can make more money elsewhere ...........................

CabinCrewe 5th May 2016 19:41

which equates to the same thing, planes full can demand higher fares as we've seen at GLA since the loss of BD.

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 16th Feb 2017 12:24

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 :)

Mooncrest 16th Feb 2017 16:34

TelsBoy. I have sent you a private message.

inOban 16th Feb 2017 17:03

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

fjencl 16th Feb 2017 18:26

KLM Metal, think flybe stopped the route in 2016

inOban 16th Feb 2017 18:39

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

Wycombe 16th Feb 2017 18:42

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

VickersVicount 16th Feb 2017 18:54

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

inOban 16th Feb 2017 18:59

Wycombe. Apologies for my ignorance.

Richard Taylor 16th Feb 2017 20:07

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 16th Feb 2017 20:37

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

Richard Taylor 16th Feb 2017 20:47

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 18th Feb 2017 14:27

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 :eek:

inOban 18th Feb 2017 17:08

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.
