Did you see the Catalina flyby yesterday? To mark 80 years since WW2 veteran John Cruickshank, aged 104, was awarded the Victoria Cross, a Catalina visited the area for a flyby over his home. While here, the plane was stationed at Aberdeen Airport. It was an honour to have the plane and crew here for this incredibly special moment.

Our 90th celebrations continue, this time with our Plane Spotters! ✈️ We welcomed 24 spotters into the airport as part of a Spotters Morning for our 90th anniversary celebrations. They have had the chance to get up close to some aircraft and see the behind the scenes of the airport. Plus, they have helped us raise over £500 for AberNecessities. A successful morning all round ❤️

Have you spotted these new murals at Aberdeen Airport? Nuart Aberdeen (International Street Art Festival) is back, and this year, we're getting involved with 3 new murals around the airport. All three pieces celebrate Scotland’s rich connection to Celtic and Pagan Mythology, connecting the past with the present. We couldn’t think of a better time than now, our 90th anniversary year, to be celebrating art with this theme ❤️ All art is by KMG, a Scottish based artist who explores themes of community, mythology and history in her art. Thank you for these incredible pieces!
