Notes:
Check-in closes 30 minutes before departure
Bring photo ID for each passenger
Luggage limit 15kgs. (Excess, if accepted, £1 per kilo).
Fare: varies, based on about £65.00 return if you book well-ahead, nearer to £80.00 for late bookings.
There are twice-daily flights between Connel and Colonsay on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so that passengers can make the return trip in one day and have a full day at their destination. Fares are highly competitive, especially if you book in advance. It is hoped that many Colonsay visitors will take advantage of the service - perhaps to mark an anniversary or special event. Enjoy the spectacular scenery, and a splendid lunch in Oban. And we hope that many mainland folk with do the same, and enjoy their own magnificent lunch here in Colonsay!
The operator is Highland Airways and they accept bookings on line or
Phone 0845 450 2245
If you have not got access to a phone or PC, call in at the Bookshop or (out of hours) contact Kevin Byrne. The Service Point (beside Village Hall) can also help with on-line booking and if you have to use cash or a cheque, Kevin will organise payment on your behalf.
Don't worry - last minute bookings are not a problem. Provided your booking is made 30 minutes before departure (and space is available) you will be able to travel.
