Air passenger service grounded ten weeks after taking off
A NEW air service connecting Inverness and Stockholm, which took off just ten weeks ago, is to be grounded next month because not enough passengers are using it.
The service, launched on 29 March, was the first to the UK by Snowflake, the SAS Scandinavian Airlines' low-cost carrier. It has been operating flights on Mondays and Fridays with return fares ranging from £92-£200.
David Stewart, MP for Inverness East, Nairn and Lochaber, said: "In the long term, a direct link with Scandinavia would have been good for local businesses and tourism. However, I am hopeful there may be a rethink, and the service can be re-introduced next year."
