Aer Lingus today unveiled its Summer 2017 schedule flying from George Best Belfast City Airport, with a great combination of weekend city break and summer holiday options to mainland Europe and London.

Northern Ireland holidaymakers can fly direct from the city to their favourite sun destinations including Alicante, Malaga, Faro and Palma, in addition to London Heathrow.

The airline will fly daily to Faro and Malaga, four days a week to Palma, Majorca on a Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday and three times weekly to Alicante, on a Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

Andrea Hunter, Business Development Manager, Aer Lingus said: “Following another successful summer on our European routes and our recent awards for ‘Best Airline out of Belfast City’ at the recent Northern Ireland Travel and Tourism Awards and our prestigious 4-star rating from Skytrax, we are certain that our choice of destinations together with our award-winning service and value-for-money fares, are just what our Northern Ireland customers are looking for.

“This winter marks two important milestones for the airline – not only are we celebrating nine years of operations in Belfast but this week we are also celebrating our fourth anniversary of flying from Belfast City Airport. We are delighted to be standing the test of time in the Northern Ireland market where at Aer Lingus we continually strive to deliver the best possible experience for NI travelers.

“Our guests tell us that our priority boarding, the range of delicious meals, treats and snacks from our bia menu, our Family First offering which includes half-price seat selection and checked bags for kids and of course our friendly, professional staff are all top of mind when choosing to fly with us. “I’d like to thank all our customers for their continued support and to reiterate our commitment to providing great value for money and choice of great sun destinations from Belfast City Airport,” she added. Flights to the sun this summer are on sale today from £40.99 one-way including taxes and charges for travel from the end of March through to the end of October 2017. Our year-round service to London continuers with one-way fares starting from £39.99 including taxes and charges. For those wishing to travel further afield, Aer Lingus operates an extensive range of long haul destinations out of Dublin Airport. This autumn saw a major expansion of the airline’s transatlantic route offering with three new routes flying from Dublin to Los Angeles, Newark, New Jersey and Hartford, Connecticut. Aer Lingus operates a year-round four times weekly service between Dublin and Los Angeles, daily, year round flights from Dublin to Newark and four flights per week direct to Hartford, Connecticut.
