Proposals for flights linking Highland capital and Brittany flagged up
PLANS have been announced for new flights to be launched between Inverness and Brittany.
Maxime Ray, owner of newly founded Lorient Aircraft, wants to run three flights a week between Inverness Airport and Lorient South Brittany Airport, running primarily as corporate flights for business travellers though any remaining seats on flights would be sold to non-business travellers “for attractive prices”.
Mr Ray told French media this week: “These are private flights with a certain number of seats which will be marketed over the counter, by the airport, at a competitive price to discover the Highlands, at the foot of Loch Ness!”
If the plans take off they will be Inverness Airport’s third link to international destinations with a KLM service to Amsterdam and seasonal charter flights by TUI to Palma de Mallorca also running.
