Each year mostly in the spring and summer months. A seaplane flies from the River Clyde in Glasgow to Loch Lomond. A limited service from December to February takes place. Restrictions in flights take place due to the weather and lack of day light hours.

The scenic flight takes on average less than one hour. The flight will take passengers over the River Clyde along past Dunoon. Then the plane heads up over towards Isle of Bute and all the beautiful scenery that you can see.

You can appreciate the roaming hills and the mountains. The view particularly looks appealing in the autumn months when the leaves and greenery color. The colours change from a bright green to burnt orange. A glorious red to a delicate yellow.

The sea plane can be boarded at the dock beside the Science centre in Glasgow. There is a bridge called the squinty bridge close to the centre. You can park your car hire from Glasgow Airport close to the bridge and the science centre. There is also a variety of car parking available in the city centre where you can leave your car hire from Glasgow Airport.

Last year the sea plane flew over six thousand passengers from Loch Lomond to Glasgow. One of their famous guests to board their plane last year was Susan Boyle. The singer had boarded the sea plane in Glasgow and was dropped off at Cameron House. She used the plane while filming a television programme which told the audience about her life.

Loch Lomond – the national park – one of Scotland’s treasures.  The National Park stretches from Tyndrum and Killin in the north to Kilmun and Balloch in the south;  the park reaches almost to Strachur in the west and to St Fillans in the east.

Loch Lomond stretches 24 miles in a north-south direction and, at 71 sq Km, it has the greatest surface area of any fresh water lake in the UK.

Oh – the scenery is absolutely stunning.
