Loganair has increased its global connectivity options for its passenger’s thanks to a new interline agreement with Aer Lingus.
The UK’s largest regional airline has partnered up with the Irish flag carrier, offering customers new access to North American routes via Dublin and Manchester.
Loganair currently flies direct to Dublin from Aberdeen and Inverness, meaning customers bound for America can now access Aer Lingus’ transatlantic destinations with the added advantage of clearing US Immigration at Dublin before departure, removing the requirement to be cleared upon arrival stateside. Additionally, Loganair passengers from the Isle of Man and Newquay can now also connect on to Aer Lingus’ North American routes via the airline’s Manchester hub, further increasing regional connectivity.
Likewise, the partnership means Aer Lingus customers can now travel to the above Scottish airports via Loganair, as well as Manchester, increasing Ireland’s connections with the UK and offering access to all of Loganair’s unique touchpoints across the country.
The expansion comes amid a summer of growth for Scotland’s airline with new routes and frequencies across key destinations, including Heathrow. This summer will also see Aer Lingus operate its largest-ever North American program with 2.25 million seats on sale across 19 transatlantic routes.
Aer Lingus now joins Loganair’s existing partnerships alongside carriers such as BA, Emirates and United Airlines, giving customers access to global onward travel from some of the UK’s most remote communities.
