On 21st June, VATSIM UK and VATSIM Scandinavia team up for an unforgettable transatlantic trek—"The Northern Gateway." This unidirectional event bridges the Nordic North and the British Isles, offering pilots a scenic and challenging route across the North Atlantic.
Depart from the windswept runways of Vágar (EKVG), Keflavík (BIKF), or Akureyri (BIAR), and make your way toward Scotland’s welcoming shores at Edinburgh (EGPH) and Glasgow (EGPF). With full ATC coverage along the way, expect seamless coordination and spectacular views as you descend over rugged coastlines and iconic Scottish landscapes.
Whether you’re flying a turboprop or a transatlantic jet, "The Northern Gateway" offers a chance to experience long-haul realism with short-haul charm.
