Aer Lingus opens new, daily non-stop service between Copenhagen and Dublin

From 28 October, passengers can again fly Aer Lingus between Copenhagen and the Irish capital Dublin; this time with on flights.
 
Companies and business people in the growth centres in the Baltic region and in Dublin will now be even more closely connected. And Scandinavians who like Guinness and Irishmen who like Carlsberg will now have even better opportunities of pampering their taste buds.

After more than 18 months’ break, passengers can again fly non-stop between Copenhagen and Dublin on Aer Lingus. This time, Aer Lingus will offer daily frequencies as opposed to three weekly frequencies in 2005.

“Scandinavians are increasingly seeing Dublin and Ireland as an attractive tourist destination. And the strong growth in the internationalised Irish economy boosts demand for flights in the other direction. We therefore expect a lot from this capacity increase, and we are convinced we will see a major expansion of the market,” said Corinna Lundbæk Pedersen, head of Airline Relations at Copenhagen Airports.

Aer Lingus is Ireland’s national carrier and the airline has flights to more than 60 destinations in Europe.

Aer Lingus’ new route is the 19th new route/frequency expansion of routes at Copenhagen Airport in 2007, and it helps consolidate Copenhagen Airport’s position as Scandinavia’s largest air traffic hub.
