Edinburgh airport is gaining a new low-cost air link to the Canary Islands with the start of flights by Norwegian to Tenerife.
The airline will run two flights a week on the route from Thursday (October 29) with fares starting at £59.90 one way.
Around 40,000 seats will be available over the next year on the route which will be operated by new Boeing 737 aircraft.
Tenerife becomes the fifth destination served by Norwegian from Edinburgh, joining Copenhagen, Malaga, Oslo and Stockholm.
The airline’s commercial director, Thomas Ramdahl, said: “Tenerife remains one of the most popular holiday getaways for Scottish travellers and compliments the range of city breaks we currently offer.”
Airport managing director, Gordon Dewar, described the expansion as a “massive vote of confidence”.
