The Scottish government had announced it will stop the ferries from carrying non residents and non essential travellers, starting yesterday evening. Wonder if they will do the same for flights? If so, how will it be enforced? At booking? At check in? At boarding? On arrival?

Also, technically, INV is the Highlands and BA has direct non codeshare fights there.

Maybe we will be looking at strict document checks for internal flights just like international flights in the coming days?
On what legal basis is the Scottish parliament deciding who can travel where? If there is a total UK lockdown, that's one thing, but at the moment I don't understand how it can be more of a statement of intent??
