Bournemouth to Dublin

Aer Arann, flying on behalf of Aer Lingus, has introduced a six-day per week service from Bournemouth to Dublin.  This new route follows closely the opening of a service between Southend and Dublin.

Flights from Bournemouth depart at 16:20 while the afternoon service from Dublin departs at 14:30 and takes around 1hr 20mins in an ATR72.  With this schedule the flights do not allow for a direct connection to the various Aer Lingus North American destinations from Dublin, but as the airline points out Heathrow is 90 miles away and has parking problems which probably means a night-stop in any event.  For flights booked out of Dublin the tax is only €3.

Speaking at Bournemouth Airport, Aer Arann’s Interim CEO Sean Brogan said: “We are delighted to commence our new Aer Lingus Regional Bournemouth to Dublin service today and we are confident that it will bring increased business and leisure visitors to both Bournemouth and Dublin.”

“Bournemouth customers now have Dublin on their doorstep with easy, convenient and value for money regional connectivity and we look forward to welcoming more and more passengers on board our Aer Lingus Regional services today and in the future.” www.aerlingus.com
