Aer Lingus to expand from Gatwick this winter
10.06.09
Aer Lingus is to expand routes from its new hub at Gatwick this winter. The Irish airline is to fly to six new destinations, bringing its network up to 13 routes, as its flights to Nice will not run over the winter.
The new routes from October 25, when airlines launch their winter programs, will be Bucharest, Eindhoven, Tenerife, Lanzarote and Warsaw. Flights to Vilinus start on September 10. They will be in addition to existing services from Gatwick to Dublin, Faro, Knock, Malaga, Munich, Vienna and Zurich.
The airline will operate 118 flights a week from Gatwick this winter with the addition of the new services. One way fares start at £24.99 to Eindhoven, £29.99 for Warsaw and £49.99 for the other destinations, including taxes and charges. Tickets are on sale from today.
Corporate affairs director Enda Corneille said: ‘Since our first launch back in April, we have sold over 400,000 flights. To give our customers a greater choice in destinations, we’ve introduced six new routes which are popular to travellers during the winter months - perfect for anyone looking to escape the British winter.'
‘We are competitively priced, as well as making life a little easier for customers with free allocated seating, self service check-in kiosks, web check-in and onboard service that puts our competitors to shame.’
