Fare tips

  • Best value mid-week departures and red-eye returns for lower fares.
  • Check baggage-included fares first; carry-on-only often re-prices higher later.
  • Book 2-4 weeks out for regional routes; longer for peak holiday periods.

Seasonal pricing

Peak Season (Summer)

Fares peak during the summer months (June-August) due to high tourist demand for Orkney's festivals and long daylight hours. Book well in advance for summer travel.

Off-Peak (Winter)

Lower fares may be found during the winter and shoulder seasons (October-April), but be prepared for shorter days and adverse weather.
