Council welcomes new international service with KLM

The Highland Council has welcomed today’s announcement of an additional daily link with Schiphol Airport from Inverness, starting in May next year.

Chair of the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Committee, Cllr Audrey Sinclair welcomed the news saying: “This is excellent news. The new service will greatly enhance our connectivity in the Highlands with better access to important international hubs. It builds on the good news of the new Heathrow link starting in May. These links could significantly boost our economy in the Highlands and help us attract more people to do business here.”

Leader of the Council, Cllr Margaret Davidson added: “This is more good news for our whole region. The Highlands are already a popular tourist destination and better international links with Inverness Airport can help us maximise this potential right across the region.”
