A REGIONAL airline has confirmed that it will be cancelling all of its flights from a UK airport.
Loganair is withdrawing all flights from Dundee Airport later this year.
This will see the end of the Dundee-London Heathrow route from October 23.
It currently runs twice a day, having swapped from London Stansted to London Heathrow back in 2023.
However, the airline said the flights between the two airports were “financially unsustainable”.
And it isn’t just Dundee and London it will affect, but also flights to Orkney and Shetland.
A Loganair spokesperson said: “Following a review of the route’s long-term viability, Loganair can confirm that its Dundee–London Heathrow service will cease after Friday 23 October, and the operating base will close.
“Earlier this year, we served notice to the stakeholder group behind the Public Service Obligation route after the contract became financially unsustainable.
“We have since explored alternative options but have not been able to identify a viable way forward that meets the objectives of the PSO while allowing the route to operate sustainably.
“Customers affected by the change will be contacted directly. We are also supporting Dundee-based colleagues and will explore alternative roles across the Loganair network wherever possible.
“These decisions reflect the same disciplined, decisive approach that has driven previous improvements in Loganair’s punctuality and resilience, protecting the long-term future of the airline, our people, and the lifeline connectivity we provide to communities across our network.”
It comes after Loganair also confirmed it would be closing its base at Southampton too.
This means the cancellations of flights between Southampton and Manchester, with the final take off on August 20.
Other flights affected include Manchester-Exeter.
