Due to international borders opening later than expected, Aer Lingus (UK) Ltd. is postponing the start of new transatlantic services between Manchester Airport and New York JFK and Orlando.  New services to Barbados will launch as scheduled.

The US routes were due to commence on 29th July.

The airline remains fully committed to its services from Manchester Airport and looks forward to launching to New York and Orlando on 30th September, and to Barbados on 20th October.

Aer Lingus is the flag carrier airline of Ireland. Founded by the Irish government, it was privatized between 2006 and 2015 and it is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of International Airlines Group. The airline’s head office is on the grounds of Dublin Airport in Cloghran, County Dublin.
