Scotland on the cheap

[Julia Elliott]

I have a friend who travels to Scotland regularly ( her Granny lives there) and always flys Iceland Air.

This year Westjet announced some new direct flights to Glasgow for a specific period of the year ( May 24-October 24, i think) starting next year. This is how i am going. Its is a 5 Hr. direct flight from Halifax -Glasgow for $850 return. I thought that was pretty good. But also the 5 hr flight really appealed to me as I am not the most patient traveler. I'm OK as long as I'm on the move, but long layovers in airports are not really my cup of tea.
