Travelling to the Faroe Isles
The majority of flights to the Faroe Isles go via Denmark. Few people travel to the Faroes, so there are few direct flights.
Direct flights are available from Atlantic Airways from Aberdeen and
and London Stansted, but only during the period of May 11 to June 11 and May 11 to September 10 respectively. Return flights cost from £224.
It is also possible to fly to Copenhagen or Billund where you can then connect with a flight to Sorvag in the Faroe Islands.
This is however considerably more expensive, costing in excess of £2,000.
Alternatively, if you are in the Shetlands, you can reach the Faroes by Ferry. Feries operate out of Lerwick to Torshaven costing £86 for a return trip.
