Exciting fares to Inverness, the gateway to Loch Ness and the stunning Scottish Highlands!
The Matrix Airfare Search by ITA Software indicates a price of $643 for Regular Economy. If you use American Airlines, the fare can drop to $453 (Basic Economy) and $643 (Regular Economy).
The $643 fare offered by American, British Airways, Finnair, and Iberia includes one checked bag and a standard carry-on.
There’s also a $453 fare available, but it’s categorized as Basic Economy/Economy Light. Please note that these fares:
- DO NOT permit advance seat selection.
- DO NOT include checked bags—fees are $75 for the first bag and $100 for the second.
- DO NOT allow changes.
- DO NOT permit cancellations—after the 24-hour risk-free window, the Basic Economy fare holds no value for future travel.
- Many online travel agencies fail to clearly display these fares as BASIC ECONOMY.
Starting January 8, 2025, visitors to the UK will need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) to enter, costing £16 for a 2-year period. Transiting through the UK without passing through border control doesn’t require an ETA, but if you do interact with UK border control, you will need one. Be cautious of scam websites charging more than the official £16 fee charged by the UK Government.
