Shetland to Bergen Service

Loganair fulfils promise to extend Shetland - Bergen air service
Loganair announced today that it would operate scheduled services in summer 2009 between Shetland and Bergen in Norway. Loganair intends to build on the success of this year's programme when nearly 1400 passengers used the twice weekly service. From the end of May to the end of August 2009 Loganair will operate on Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. The addition of the Thursday service gives the tourist great flexibility and choice of holiday arrangements.
Loganair's Chairman Scott Grier said, "We, of course, were aware of the important historical and cultural links between Shetland and Norway and we knew of the great disappointment that was felt when the Smyril ferry service between Shetland and Norway was discontinued last year, but the high demand for our air services exceeded our expectations. We are delighted with the results of our 2008 programme and look forward with great confidence to our increased operation next year".
Loganair's Shetland - Bergen services for summer 2009 go on sale immediately through the flybe.com reservations system.
