Aer Lingus reported an operating loss of €55m for the first quarter of 2025, showing an improvement from an €82m loss in Q1 2024.
The financial recovery in Q1 2025 was supported by a 5% growth in overall capacity, including a 4.5% increase on North American routes and a 7.1% rise in Europe.
The airline has commenced its largest-ever North American network for Summer 2025, introducing new routes from Dublin to Nashville and Indianapolis.
Improvements in customer experience, such as enhanced web and app functionality, refurbished lounges, and upgraded inflight services, reflect Aer Lingus’s commitment to passenger satisfaction.
Lynne Embleton, CEO of Aer Lingus, shared; “Our Q1 2025 financial performance represents a strong financial outcome and a significant improvement on Q1 2024. The Q1 performance builds upon the underlying momentum seen in the business from 2024. These new aircraft and the remaining four XLRs which are expected to join the fleet later this year will support a compelling growth ambition.”
