Scottish airline Loganair (LM/LOG) has teamed up with Poppyscotland and The Royal British Legion to offer a discount armed forces personnel, past and present.

Serving members, veterans and members of the armed forces community will now get a 10% discount off Loganair’s core air fares and flights can be booked via the Defence Discount Service website

The offer is open to serving armed forces, reserve forces, spouses and partners of serving personnel, HM armed forces veterans (ex-serving), MOD civil servants, bereaved family members, war or service widow(er)s, cadet forces and NATO personnel in the UK.

In addition to the discount, Loganair is also operating a Saab 2000 with a special livery honouring both Poppyscotland and The Royal British Legion. The aircraft carries the logos of both organisations on its tail.

Kay Ryan, commercial director at Loganair said: “The discount has been created to honour the servicemen and woman who have dedicated their lives to serving their country.

Loganair is working in partnership with Poppyscotland and The Royal British Legion to support members of the Armed Forces while also showcasing some of the vital work these organisations carry out on a daily basis on behalf of the entire military community.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming subscribers to the military discount on board.”

The discount launch coincides with the 100th anniversary of the end of World War 1 and remembrance Sunday.
