Aer Lingus is expanding its transatlantic network with plans to launch a new direct service from Dublin to Denver, Colorado as well as re-launch its route from Dublin to Minneapolis-St. Paul as part of its summer 2024 schedule.
Four-times weekly flights to Minneapolis-St Paul will commence on 29 April, 2024 and will increase to a daily year-round service from next October. Flights will be serviced on A321XLR aircraft from winter 2024.
Meanwhile, the new Denver service will operate four times weekly from 17 May, 2024.
With the addition of the new routes, the Irish carrier will operate a total of 18 services between Ireland and North America, including its newly launched Dublin-Cleveland service, which commenced in May.
Aer Lingus chief executive, Lynne Embleton, said: “With Dublin’s geographic position as the gateway to Europe, pre-clearance facilities at the airport and the strong, long established Irish American ties, Aer Lingus is ideally placed to connect people and places across the Atlantic.
“Denver and Minneapolis-St Paul are significant business destinations within the US and the new Aer Lingus routes facilitate corporate links and connectivity between Europe and North America, through our Dublin Hub.”
Embleton added the current 2023 summer season has been “our biggest yet”, with 2.25 million seats to North America.
“We are confident in our growth strategy and look forward to welcoming customers onboard these two new routes next year,’’ she said.
