The Sunday Times Scotland has launched a new service for travellers, expanding its Travel section to become the only quality newspaper north of the border to carry news and features on holiday departures direct from Scotland. With a number of holidaymakers wanting to fly and sail directly out of Scotland, avoiding the hassle of getting to an English airport first, the title has appointed Katie Wood, an experienced travel writer, to help Scots’ holiday plans take off. Katie Wood brings more than three decades of experience in the travel industry. The author of 39 guidebooks, she has travelled to 136 countries on five continents and been a travel editor for four national UK newspapers, including The Sun. She has also presented on radio and TV travel programmes, including ‘Wish You Were Here’ and ‘Scottish Passport’. Each month Katie will share her top tips for travelling abroad directly from Scotland and will also give the lowdown on the best spots closer to home. The new content has been launched after securing a six-month advertising deal with Air Canada, which operates direct flights between Glasgow and Toronto.
