Aer Lingus is set to enhance its U.S. flight offerings, particularly to Boston, as it prepares for a significant expansion in 2026. This new development marks the airline’s largest ever transatlantic summer schedule.
Aer Lingus Expands Boston Flights
The airline is increasing its frequency of flights from Shannon to Boston, raising the total to ten flights per week. This adjustment is aimed at improving travel options for passengers.
Flight Schedule and New Routes
The updated schedule will introduce earlier departure times. Travelers can expect flights to leave Shannon at 11 AM, arriving in Boston at 1 PM. This change is designed to help passengers make the most of their time in the city.
New Direct Route to Raleigh-Durham
Aer Lingus will also introduce a new direct route from Dublin to Raleigh-Durham in North Carolina. This service is scheduled to commence in April 2026 and will operate year-round with up to five flights per week.
Enhanced Services for Popular Routes
In addition to the new routes, Aer Lingus will increase the frequency of flights to other popular destinations. This includes:
- Nashville: Five flights per week during the summer of 2026
- Indianapolis: Five flights per week during the summer of 2026
- Orlando: Increased flight availability throughout the summer
This expansion reflects Aer Lingus’s commitment to increasing travel accessibility and enhancing customer experiences. The airline continues to adapt its offerings to meet the growing demand for transatlantic travel.
