Fly to stunning Norwegian cities as Edinburgh Airport welcomes back two popular routes

Published May 11, 2022

Direct flights between Edinburgh and two Norwegian cities are back and operating for the first time since before the pandemic.

Loganair returned to EDI on May 11 with their Bergen and Stavanger services, running three flights a week to each city.

Flights to Stavanger take-off Tuesday, Thursdays and Sundays. Flights to Bergen take-off Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays.

Both places are home to spectacular fjords while Bergen, Norway’s second largest city, is a hub for culture and history, with excellent nightlife and a famed arts scene. Stavanger is packed with colour, white sandy beaches, and some of Norway’s top restaurants.

While there's so much to see and do in these fascinating, vibrant cities, those looking to venture further and explore Northern Norway can connect easily via Loganair’s codeshare partnership with Norwegian regional airline, Widerøe.

Kate Sherry, Aviation Director at Edinburgh Airport said: “Seeing these routes return to Edinburgh with Loganair is further evidence that things are really moving in the right direction as we continue our strong recovery.

“Welcoming back more routes between Edinburgh and Norway allows us to enhance connectivity for leisure and business passengers from both countries.

“For us it’s about offering passengers choice, and we’re excited to work with Loganair on helping people experience all Bergen and Stavanger have to offer.”

The two direct services mark Loganair’s first international routes from Edinburgh Airport since 2019, and the first international route launches in the airlines 60th anniversary year.

Both routes are operated by an Embraer 145 jet, and fares to Bergen and Stavanger start at £99.86 including 15kg luggage allowance and a mandatory carbon offset charge as part of Loganair’s sustainable flying programme - GreenSkies.
