Namesakes offered free flights from Glasgow Airport

People sharing their name with one of two destinations in Scotland could win free flights from Glasgow Airport.

Flybe, Europe's biggest regional airline, is searching for a Ben Becula and a Kirk Wall to celebrate the launch of its partnership with LoganAir to destinations Benbecula and Kirkwall.

The airline will fly from Glasgow Airport to several new locations in Scotland as a result of the deal and has created this unusual competition to mark the event.

Chief commercial officer of Flybe Mike Rutter said: "We realise our search for these two namesakes might be a bit of a tall order but we are remaining optimistic that there is someone, somewhere, out there!

"The operational launch of the franchise deal will mark an historic day for both Loganair and Flybe as BA finally flies off into the sunset and we greatly look forward to sharing it with our newly uncovered destination namesakes!"

Flybe also operates a number of services to destinations all over Europe from several UK locations, while their new services from Glasgow Airport will begin on October 26th.
