Book a Flight to Inverness

Inverness may be the UK’s most northerly city but that doesn’t mean it’s not incredibly well-connected. In fact, with so many flights arriving at Inverness from other UK airports, finding a great deal on your air fare shouldn’t prove a challenge.

Book your flight today to explore the glens, mountains and whisky trails of the Highlands and see if you can spot that mysterious, brooding presence that is said to lurk beneath the waters of nearby Loch Ness.

And Nessie is not the only surprise that awaits: the cheapest UK flights to Inverness, such as those from London or Edinburgh, can cost little more than a few pounds – so start your monster and flight hunt now!


When to Book Cheap Flights to Inverness

The peak tourist season in Inverness is during July, August and September, helped on by the warmer, drier weather and the UK school holidays. September also sees the added visitor boost of the Loch Ness Marathon, which starts at Fort Augustus on the southern side of the loch and ends in the centre of the city. Air fares will be higher during this period, although it’s still possible to find some great deals.

Winters can be bitterly cold – and not great for exploring the scenic surrounds. Inverness can experience some of the coldest winters of any UK destination, with average temperatures only reaching -1oC, but the low price of your air fare may well warm you up a little.

Late spring, during the months of April and May, and early autumn, are great times to catch Inverness in fair weather and without the summer crowds. Hotels and airlines regularly discount during this shoulder season.

How to survive the flight to Inverness?
If you’re poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Inverness.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Inverness?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve rounded up some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Inverness, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
