FAQs - booking Scotland flights

  • What are some common layovers on the route from Ottawa to Scotland?

    Common layover points when flying to Glasgow (GLA) include major European hubs like London Heathrow Airport (LHR) in the United Kingdom and Canadian airports such as Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) and Montreal Airport (YUL). If your destination is Edinburgh (EDI), you might have a layover in Toronto (YYZ), Newark (EWR) in the United States, or Zurich (ZRH) in Switzerland. The choice of layover airports will depend on the airline you fly with.

  • If I want to visit Loch Ness, which airport should I fly to?

    To get to this mythical place in Scotland, the most direct option is to fly to Inverness Airport (INV), which is located about 35 km from Loch Ness. You can fly to this airport from Ottawa (YOW) making two layovers, one at Toronto Pearson (YYZ) and another at London Gatwick (LGW), to finally land in Inverness. If you are not interested in making so many stopovers, you can fly to Edinburgh Airport (EDI) and rent a car at the airport itself. You can reach Loch Ness in about 3h 30min.

  • Do I need a visa to fly from Ottawa to Scotland?

    Canadian citizens traveling to Scotland, which is part of the United Kingdom, typically do not require a visa for short stays (up to six months) for tourism. However, a valid passport is necessary. As with all international travel, visa requirements can change, so it's important to check the most current information before your trip.

  • How can I make my flight from Ottawa to Scotland more sustainable?

    To make your journey more sustainable, choose airlines known for their environmental commitments. For instance, airlines like British Airways have initiatives to reduce carbon emissions, including operating newer, more fuel-efficient aircraft and offering passengers the opportunity to offset their flight's carbon footprint. Booking the most direct flight possible can also reduce fuel consumption associated with layovers.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from Ottawa to Scotland?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from Ottawa to Scotland.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket from Ottawa to Scotland?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight to Scotland from Ottawa is likely to change within 7 days, so travelers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights from Ottawa to Scotland?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional return ticket. You could then fly to Scotland with an airline and back to Ottawa with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from Ottawa to Scotland?

    Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you all the options when flying to Scotland from Ottawa up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. You can then pick the flights that suit you best.

Top tips for finding a cheap flight from Ottawa to Scotland

  • Morning departure is around 11% more expensive than an evening flight, on average*.
  • Your international journey from Ottawa to Scotland will start at Ottawa Macdonald–Cartier International Airport (YOW). Direct flights to Scotland are not common, so you will typically have connecting flights, often through major European hubs or Canadian airports like Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ).
  • Scotland's two main international airports are Edinburgh Airport (EDI) and Glasgow Airport (GLA). Choose your arrival airport based on your destination and itinerary in Scotland. Edinburgh is ideal for exploring the east and the Scottish Highlands, while Glasgow is a gateway to the west and the southern parts of Scotland.
  • Air Canada, British Airways, and KLM are among the airlines that operate flights from Ottawa to Scotland, usually with a stopover. These airlines offer various options in terms of flight times and prices, allowing some flexibility in planning your trip.
  • Utilize the amenities at your layover airports. Airports like London Heathrow (LHR) or Toronto Pearson (YYZ) offer numerous dining, shopping, and relaxation options to make your layover more enjoyable and comfortable. Air Canada's Maple Leaf Lounge at Toronto Pearson can be a great place to relax, in Terminal 1.
  • Given the duration of the flight and the potential for layovers, upgrading your seat for additional comfort can be a wise investment. Airlines such as British Airways often offer the opportunity for last-minute upgrades to premium classes at a reduced cost compared to the original price. This upgrade can provide additional legroom, priority boarding, better in-flight meals, and an overall more relaxed travel experience.
