Route on the map
When to fly
February tends to offer the lowest prices because it sits outside school holidays and major events. Daylight is limited at this time of year in both cities, which keeps demand steady rather than spiking. You should expect more availability on midweek departures when business travellers have finished their meetings. The price calendar will show you how fares shift through autumn into spring as well.
Airlines and what to expect
The route mixes budget carriers with full-service operators. Easyjet and Wider provide direct flights that focus on getting you there quickly. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Aer Lingus and British Airways often appear with connections through their hubs if the nonstop seat sells out or costs more. Emerald Airlines and Loganair Limited also serve this connection at various times of year. You will want to compare what each carrier includes in the base fare versus what requires an extra charge.

- Compare connection times if you book separate tickets rather than a single itinerary through a hub carrier.
- Verify that your passport or ID meets UK entry requirements when travelling between cities within the same country.
