Aer Lingus

Aer Lingus have announced that their Dublin route will go year round from NQY. 3 weekly flight during the winter and up to 7 in summer. Really glad to see this working. Was popular with sir southwest and good to see Aer Lingus having a good crack at it. Thumbs up from me

Good news again for the airport and for those wanting to fly to the us from the far southwest...

Oh so I wasn't imagining it then and they really did announce this. I thought I was dreaming...

Yes, they've got flights through many of the UK regions. Not sure how reliable they are but you do get the pre immigration clearance in Dublin which is meant to save time at the other end.

Cork announced for summer 17... more good news for the airport.. Cornwall appears to do well for Irish visitors, so hoping this does well. Also a good vote of confidence from Aer lingus...

CM has posted in the Aer Lingus airline forum quoting SeanM on Twitter that Emerald Airlines will operate NQY-DUB 4 x weekly from 29 April 2022 on behalf of Aer Lingus (a number of other UK-DUB routes also begin in March and April).

Tickets are expected to be on sale 'imminently'.

Today (29th April) we welcomed the inaugural flight on the new Aer Lingus Regional service between Dublin and Newquay (exclusively operated by Emerald Airlines).
Not only reconnecting Cornwall to Ireland but also facilitating onward connectivity from Newquay to the USA and Canada.

Good to see this new DUB-NQY route. I really feel EI regional/ Emerald should be operating DUB-LPL by now, and it bizarre that they are not.

With Ryanair being 3/4 x daily on the route with the 737-800, would there be much room for EI? They are probably very aware that FR would react to keep it's LPL-DUB market share.

I think it would depend on what sort of onward connections they could get.

Am I missing something, the announcement is BHD (Belfast City) to Newquay not Dublin.

They’re launching Belfast City to Newquay and also a seasonal Jersey- Belfast city route. (No new Dublin routes at present)

 

[Jerry]

I'm sure they already operate Dublin to Newquay?

 

[Silvercity]

Sorry misread, still don't associate EI with operating from NI
