I don’t have live access to current news in this turn. Based on the latest publicly available summaries I can recall, Wick John O’Groats Airport (WIC) has seen ongoing discussions about service continuity and potential upgrades, with emphasis on PSO-funded routes to Aberdeen and broader regional connectivity. However, for the most up-to-date developments, I’ll need to fetch recent sources.
Would you like me to pull the latest news from official sources (HIAL, Scottish Government, Highland Council) and reputable aviation news outlets, then summarize the current status and any scheduled services or closures? If you have a preferred date range or specific aspects (e.g., PSO routes, airport upgrades, airline operators), tell me and I’ll tailor the search.
