Aer Lingus Regional, operated by Emerald Airlines (EA/EAI), has begun its summer season route from Cornwall Airport Newquay (NQY/EGHQ) to Dublin, Ireland.
The daily service will operate until the 24th of October, boosting Irish tourism to the South West of England and also offering access to city breaks and getaways to Dublin and Ireland for those in the South West.
Ian Lough, Head of Commercial at Emerald Airlines, said: “We’re delighted to launch our seasonal route between Newquay and Dublin, just in time for the busy summer months ahead. Whether you’re flying for work or leisure, this service provides a seamless and affordable travel option for all. We look forward to welcoming passengers on board in the months ahead!”
Amy Smith, Managing Director (Interim) at Cornwall Airport Newquay, added: “We’re delighted to welcome Aer Lingus Regional back to Cornwall for the summer season. The return of the Dublin service is always popular with our passengers, whether they’re planning a city break or connecting onwards to the US. It’s fantastic to offer this seamless transatlantic connectivity from Newquay, and we’re excited to see even more choice this summer with the addition of the Belfast route too.”
