The airport has frequent flights to Manchester Airport, which is the third busiest airport in the UK. Due to its traffic volumes, Manchester Airport has all the standard amenities that you would expect from a major international airport - lounges, fast-track services through security, shopping, restaurants and bars, as well as hotel accommodation onsite the airport.

If direct flights with Loganair and British Airways are not available, you could take a longer connecting flight if required.

There isn’t a great deal of difference in price between the stopover options available on this route. The British Airways option has a short stopover of 1h 5min in Heathrow, so it’s worth checking with the staff onboard the first leg of your flight whether the gate for the second flight is nearby. Since you’re staying within the British Airways network for both flights, you shouldn’t have too much difficulty connecting. If you take the longer Loganair/Aer Lingus route, from Inverness via Belfast to Manchester, there will be a 7h stopover in Belfast.
