When planning a USA holiday, Aer Lingus can take your travels to new heights. Discover how you can save time on immigration checks, enjoy advanced entertainment systems, strap-in with peace of mind and - with a little luck of the Irish - have the trip of a lifetime!
 

Direct Flights 

With new direct flights from Manchester, flying to the US with Aer Lingus has never been easier. They’ll put you right at the heart of some of America’s best-loved destinations, including Orlando and New York. 

Safety Measures 

All of Aer Lingus' Airbus aircraft include state-of-the-art air filtration technology, more commonly found in operating theatres. Cabin air is replaced every three minutes and 99.97% of airborne particles are removed. The interior of each aircraft is also treated with hospital-grade disinfectant daily.  

Save Time On Security Checks

Immigration and customs checks for tourists in the US can be notoriously long. However, flying with Aer Lingus can let you land like a local. After boarding from your preferred airport, a quick stop-off in Dublin or Shannon will give you US pre-clearance in no time.

Once you touch down stateside, you can simply collect your baggage at arrivals and start your holiday right there and then. Aer Lingus flies to New York, Boston, Chicago, Washington, Orlando, Philadelphia, LA, San Francisco and Seattle. And connections are available from Glasgow, Isle of Man, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Manchester, Leeds Bradford, Newcastle, Exeter, Newquay Cornwall, and London Heathrow and Gatwick.

Advanced Onboard Entertainment

On Aer Lingus flights, extra legroom or even beds are optional, but entertainment is guaranteed. Their new interactive screens feature the latest blockbuster movies, the hottest music videos, and thrilling games for all ages at your fingertips. Play, pause, rewind or fast-forward at your leisure, or play games to never get bored.

You can also surf while you fly, with Wi-Fi available on selected flights for browsing at your leisure. All A321neoLR and XLR aircraft have Wi-Fi, and all A330 aircraft have Wi-Fi, texts and data options. Retail therapy is also on the horizon from luxury brands with up to 57% on high street prices. But there’s a lot more than just the brochure to read: over 7,000 digital magazines and newspapers from around the world are available from PressReader. You can access these publications before, during, and even after your flight.

Business Class

For a touch of luxury, and a lot more 'me time' - feel the difference of Aer Lingus’ Business Class. Before your flight, you can escape the crowds in airport lounges with refreshments, TV entertainment, and even shower facilities. When it's time to board, you can experience exclusive check-in areas before taking your premium plane seat.

This seat transforms into a fully flat 6.5-foot-long bed - cosy enough to travel the Atlantic in 40 winks. Or, you can stay wide-eyed watching thrilling shows on larger screens. The cabin crew will also prepare your meal individually and be on hand for your personal needs.
