Aer Lingus flight delay claim

Aer Lingus operates flights from Dublin, Cork, Shannon from their base in Ireland to destinations in Europe and North America.

Aer Lingus has been in operation for over 75 years and has introduced a new feel of Airbus A320 to celebrate the occasion. As a low cost airline it has capitalised on the low maintenance costs of maintaining its fleet and has been able to pass these savings on to its passengers.

The additional benefits of flying Aer Lingus to North America and clearing customs in Ireland means you can bypass all the additional security checks and collect your luggage a lot quicker than those flights setting off from other locations in Europe.
