The new ATR-42-600 aircrafts are larger, quieter, and more efficient than the Saab 340s they will replace and will link Glasgow to Scotland's islands and further beyond.
Loganair is introducing its first ATR aircraft to Glasgow Airport as part of a multimillion investment to upgrade its fleet.
The services will offer up to a 45pc increase in capacity with the airline's aim to offer lower fares. The introduction of the ATRs will also enable greater year-round connectivity to domestic and international destinations via Glasgow. Changes to the cabin include larger overhead luggage storage, four-abreast seating, and a quieter flight. Increased hold capacity will also supports Loganair’s carriage of pets.
The transition to new ATR aircraft on services at Glasgow is part of the ongoing replacement of the Saab 340s which were introduced in 1999. Some Saab services will continue until the end of the summer before the airline formally retires the aircraft.
