Aer Lingus to Resume Daily Service Between Dublin and Connecticut

In 2023, Aer Lingus will resume daily service between Dublin and Hartford, Connecticut.

The only direct connection from Europe to the US state will begin flights on 26th March.

Airbus A321neo aircraft will be used for the airline’s 16th North Atlantic route, with prices starting at £229 one-way.

Before departing, travelers from Dublin can use the airport’s pre-clearance service for immigration, enabling them to enter at Bradley International airport without lines and as a domestic passenger.

The news follows the airline’s revelation last week that Cleveland, Ohio, will be part of its transatlantic network starting on 19th May 2023.

Executive director Lynn Embleton said: “Daily flights to Hartford will bring travellers into the centre of Connecticut, home to global business, Yale University and renowned tourist attractions.

“Aer Lingus is forging ahead with its North American expansion plans, growing the number of transatlantic routes from its Dublin hub.”

Kevin Dillon, Connecticut airport authority executive director, said: “The resumption of the Aer Lingus route has been a major priority in our recovery strategy.

“We look forward to rebuilding the service, continuing the strong momentum it had prior to the onset of the pandemic, and bringing back easy and quick transatlantic access with an award-winning airline.”
