A nervous flyer might not enjoy a flight from Prestwick to Belfast City airport with Gill Air. However the flights are cheap, and relatively painless. For a 40 minute flight you don't need pampering, and indeed you aren't. The flights are on time, you don't need to worry that they'll lose your baggage, and although this isn't the comfortable option it sure as hell beats a choppy crossing on the boat from Stranraer.

It is a basic service, and they make no bones about this fact, but it is reliable and above all very easy. If I needed to get from Scotland to Ireland and time was not an issue, I'd happy go with them again, just because the air terminal in Belfast is very convenient.

I've given a FH as you say that a nervous flyer might not like it, but you didn't say why not? I believe they operate small Shorts aircraft - is that why? Would also be more helpful to know about on board, how comfortable the seats are, if there is any service - even a glass of water? Cheers.
