New routes from Europe to Ireland –an announcement by Aer Lingus

Tourism Ireland lovingly encourages the suggestion of Aer Lingus to open two new routes from source (Europe) to Destination (Ireland) for 2012. The two new routes is from Stockholm (Sweden) and Verona (Italy) to Dublin.  Functioning intimately with airlines to construct insist for routes is a key main concern for Tourism Ireland and these original flights will give a greeting increase for tourism from Sweden and Italy.

Niall Gibbons, chief administrative of Tourism Ireland, said: “The introduction of these new Aer Lingus flights is fantastic news; they will certainly expand travel options for Swedish and Italian holidaymakers who wish to visit Ireland.  We are already working closely with Aer Lingus and Dublin Airport to maximise the demand for these new routes and boost tourism.  As an island destination, direct, convenient and competitive access services are critical to achieving growth in inbound tourism.  Tourism Ireland is committed to working with air and sea carriers, airports and other tourism interests to drive demand for these two new flights, and all other services to Ireland, and to help maintain our vital network of routes and services.”

A €9 million tourism marketing blitz with carriers – including Aer Lingus, Ryanair, Aer Arann, Emirates, US Airways and ferry companies – is under way right now in major markets, supported by revenues from the air travel tax and involving matching funds from the carriers.
