Aer Lingus will begin flying from Dublin to Las Vegas this autumn and tickets will go on sale today.
The route will be operated by a wide-body A330-300 aircraft, with flights every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from October 25, 2024 to April 29, 2025.
Return flights start from £569 and customers will be able to use the US pre-clearance facilities at Dublin Airport, allowing them to complete all necessary immigration and customs checks prior to departure.
The flight schedules are as follows:
- Departure from Dublin at 15:20 and arrive in Las Vegas at 17:50.
- Departure from Las Vegas at 7:35 p.m. and arrival in Dublin at 1:10 p.m. the next day.
Lynne Embleton, CEO of Aer Lingus, commented:
“Aer Lingus brings this iconic destination closer to customers looking for an escape from the winter sun. In addition to the warm climate, Las Vegas is recognized as one of the world's largest entertainment capitals, famous for its shows, concerts, sporting events and natural wonders. It has been a long-time ambition of ours to fly to Las Vegas. “The launch of this new Aer Lingus route is a significant moment for us and our customers.”
Steve Hill, president and CEO of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, added:
“On behalf of all of Las Vegas, we couldn't be more excited to welcome Aer Lingus to Las Vegas for the first time.
“In 2023, our city welcomed more than 52,000 visitors from Ireland, and this direct, non-stop service from Dublin will undoubtedly be a motivation for Irish travelers and visitors from across the UK and Europe to discover all that Las Vegas has to offer. We congratulate Aer Lingus on this expansion and look forward to a very successful partnership.”
Aer Lingus recently updated its business class offering, adding a new food menu, improved Wi-Fi speeds and an expanded IFE library.
Last month, the airline resumed its Dublin to Minneapolis-St Paul route, four years after its suspension due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and more recently launched a Dublin to Denver route.
