My wife flew up from Bristol to Inverness last week and it was £41-00 total
on easyjet.
Flybee have now started a flight to Exeter which is handier for Taunton than Bristol and if you get the dates right its cheap.
Good luck

I flew from Luton to Inverness a few years ago and it cost something like £45. I couldn't have even driven up for that (days of cheapish petrol too).
The train fare was something else - I could have flown to New York (in America) for less!!!

Great to see that public transport (trains) are encouraging people to leave the car behind....

my OH once got a train from Reading to Aberdeen, 1st class one way for £40!! I wouldn't mind taking the train up, esp the sleeper but it costs so much and there are so many different prices it is beyond stupid!

My hubby took the train from Wick to Edinburgh return.............£15! What a bargain.
