Aer Lingus to resume Miami twice a week

Aer Lingus is returning to Miami from Dublin in the autumn with connections from eight UK airports.

The transatlantic service to the Florida city restarts on October 21 with two Airbus A330 flights a week, rising to three a week from October 29.

Fares start at £229 each way as part of a return trip, including taxes and charges. Business class fares lead in at £1,999 return.

Miami is the airline’s second connection to Florida following the resumption of Dublin to Orlando flights in November.

The airline will be the only carrier offering direct flights between Ireland and the US west coast, with daily flights to San Francisco resuming on February 25, daily flights to Los Angeles starting on May 12 and Seattle returning five times a week on May 26.

Flights to New York and Boston from Shannon start from March 10, with US Customs and Immigration pre-clearance.

Aer Lingus provides 14 direct routes between Ireland and North America, including New York, Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Orlando, Washington, Seattle and Philadelphia.

US executive vice president Bill Byrne said: “We are delighted to be building back our US connectivity this year and there’s no doubt that travel is back for 2022.

“We are so happy to be flying to the US again, and this week we are delighted to be continuing to connect families, friends and businesses to Florida.

“UK customers travelling transatlantic with Aer Lingus can not only avail of great on board service but also seamless connections via Dublin and US Customs and Immigration preclearance at Dublin.”
