Aer Lingus has announced the addition of three new routes to its winter schedule:
- Malta 3w starting October 25
- Marrakech 3w starting October 26
- Seville 3w starting October 25
The new services, operating three times weekly from Dublin Airport, are now open for booking with introductory rates starting from €49.99 each way to Seville, and €69.99 to Malta and Marrakech. The airline will compete with Ryanair on all three routes.
Aer Lingus plans to increase capacity to Alicante, Athens, Nice, Mallorca, Tenerife and Faro. It will fly 5w to Bordeaux this winter, extend its Izmir service to December, and operate double-daily flights from Dublin Airport to Lanzarote and is introducing a new transatlantic service from Dublin to Las Vegas in the US starting in October.
Further announcements for Cork and Shannon are to follow.
The new schedule follows a landmark agreement with the pilot’s union IALPA which increased pilot hours from 600 hours a year to 800.
