The initiative, which runs from Thursday, May 15 to Sunday, May 25, allows children aged 11 and under to travel without paying an airfare when accompanied by a fare-paying adult, with only taxes and surcharges applying.
The offer is valid for bookings made on Loganair's routes during the promotional period for travel from 1 June 2025 onwards.
The campaign supports the introduction of new direct Saturday services between Edinburgh and Guernsey, launching 24 May, and Glasgow and Newquay, launching 31 May – both designed to connect travellers with some of the UK's most popular coastal destinations.
The Edinburgh to Guernsey route will operate weekly on Saturdays until 13 September, departing at 16:10 and arriving in Guernsey at 18:10.
Return flights will leave at 18:40 and land in Edinburgh at 20:45.
This new connection opens up the Channel Islands' unique blend of stunning coastlines, rich heritage and renowned hospitality to Scottish travellers, while also giving Guernsey-based passengers direct access to Edinburgh and onward links across Loganair's domestic network.
Meanwhile, the Glasgow to Newquay service offers a direct route to Cornwall's coastline, with flights running every Saturday throughout the summer season.
Fares start from £89.99, including a combined 21kg luggage allowance across cabin and hold bags.
Luke Lovegrove, Chief Commercial Officer at Loganair, said: 'With summer travel on the horizon, we're pleased to be launching two new routes and a campaign that offers something extra for families planning their next trip.
'Our Kids Fly Fare-FREE initiative supports the return of our seasonal services to Guernsey and Newquay, and we look forward to welcoming more customers on board as they explore everything these fantastic destinations have to offer.'
Global Airlines Take-Off
Earlier this year, Loganair was ranked second in Which?'s annual customer survey of short-haul airlines, achieving a 72% customer score.
The airline received a five-star rating for customer service and four stars for booking, boarding, and cleanliness.
The fare-free offer for children applies to selected Loganair routes and is available exclusively via the airline's website.

Edinburgh's pink perfect summer – the city's first rosé wine trail taking flight

Edinburgh is about to get a rosy glow this summer with the launch of the city's inaugural Rosé Wine Trail. This promises to be a delightful journey transforming a typical afternoon or evening out into a sophisticated wine adventure exploring different areas of the city – great if you have friends visiting. The trail features three distinguished venues from the Signature Group: McLarens on the Corner in Morningside, The Huxley on Rutland Street, and Copper Blossom on George Street, each offering its own unique atmosphere. Wine enthusiasts can indulge in carefully curated rosé selections, creative rosé-inspired cocktails, or opt for the complete experience with a tasting flight. The £15 flight offers three 125ml glasses each of the crisp Mirabello Adria Vini from Lombardia, Italy; the classic Château Routas from Côtes de Provence, France; and the sophisticated M by Minuty, also from Côtes de Provence. For those seeking bubbles, the selection extends to include Della Vite Rosé Sparkling from Valdobbiadene and their non-alcoholic sparkling alternative for designated drivers and non-drinkers. The experience goes beyond just wine, with each venue offering an array of carefully crafted small bites designed to complement the rosé selection. Expect indulgent treats like baked Camembert served with focaccia croutons and fresh crudités, aromatic garlic-buttered flatbreads paired with pomegranate and baked beetroot hummus, perfectly charred tikka skewers, and the uniquely Scottish touch of haggis bon bons accompanied by blistered Padrón peppers. The trail operates on a delightfully interactive passport system – collect your free passport from any participating venue, gather stamps from each stop, and you'll be entered into a draw for the ultimate prize: a dreamy getaway to Provence, the very heart of rosé country. This summer initiative perfectly captures Edinburgh's evolving food and drink scene, combining the city's love for quality wine with its appetite for culinary exploration. Whether you're a rosé aficionado or simply curious about pink wine, this trail offers an accessible and enjoyable way to discover new flavours while exploring different corners of the city.

'Best job in Britain' up for grabs - here's how to apply

The role is unpaid, but comes with a unique perk as the successful applicants get £10,000 worth of free holidays across Europe The best job in Britain is up for grabs, and it involves testing holidays for a year. The role doesn't come with a salary, but the perks are unbeatable. The lucky family who lands the Chief Family Holiday Tester position will receive £10,000 worth of free holidays across Europe. The chosen UK-based family will be whisked away on multiple trips to family-friendly resorts. They'll be tasked with testing everything from ice creams to sunbathing spots, and they should be as adept at rating waterpark slides as they are at enjoying a late-night cocktail once the kids are tucked up in bed. ‌ ‌ All flights, accommodation, and meals are included. The only requirement is that applicants must have at least one child under the age of 12. This unique opportunity is a collaboration between family day out platform Day Out With The Kids (DOWTK) and holiday giant TUI. They're looking for a family to test and review TUI's top family-friendly resorts. The winning family will be expected to provide honest feedback, share social content, and help understand what families truly value when planning their time away. A spokesperson for Day Out With The Kids said: "We want real families - the ones who pack snacks like pros, navigate kids' clubs with confidence and rate a splash park just as highly as a sunset cocktail. "Explorers, ice cream experts, pool-slide critics, parents who know the joy of an early breakfast and a rare, glorious lie-in." ‌ The job description states the candidates should be: "Full of personality and love family adventures. "Confident in creating content, photos, videos or short reviews. Happy to appear in DOWTK and TUI marketing with consent." All applicants need to do is head to the TUI website and find three hotels you'd love to stay at, one each in the price range of: under £500, £500-£1000 and £1000+ per person. Following this, fill out the entry form with the names of the hotels and answer any questions about your family. "We're not looking for influencers, just real families who love to travel and can share their honest experiences with us in photos, videos or written feedback." Applications close on 4 August.
