To mark the departure, passengers were piped aboard the BEA-liveried A319 "retrojet" by the Inverness Royal British Legion Pipe Band. The A319 is painted in the BA heritage livery as part of the airline’s centenary celebrations.
BA says that the new schedule provides a 30% increase in capacity on the route, increasing the number of flights to three return services on Saturdays and Sundays, with a double daily service Monday to Friday. From October BA will operate a double-daily service seven days a week.
