Aer Lingus

[Spunker]

Just booked flights on Aer Lingus to get me to the Paris Airshow in June. 1st time flying them, any pros or cons with their service etc. from those that have traveled with them before?

Just don't go after their lucky charms.

I used Aer Lingus once, when I moved to the US. I particularly remember that they were right on schedule, to the dot. Friendly staff as well.

Enjoy the Terminal 5 Experince at JFK, that is all I have to say on it.

Doesn't Aer Lingus use Terminal 1?

[AirtrafficController]

Aer Lingus operates out of Terminal 4 until March 26th. On March 27th, they move to Terminal 5.

Never heard anything negative about flying on Aer Lingus. I remember fondly their 3 747's. Suddenly, they were replaced by lowly Airbuses. What a surprise I had back in 1995 seeing these magnificent aircraft at a Boneyard in Arizona near Tucson waiting to be scrapped. One aircraft even flew the late Pope from Rome to Dublin. Shame.

they used their 707s late in the game too, thru the late 70's

I'm green with envy that you're attending the Paris Air Show.

I'll be flying to/from Boston. Thanks everyone.

Strong rumour in Europe that Aer Lingus are purchasing 4 ex Finnish B757's to start up ops from Dublin/Shannon to Boston / JFK / YYZ from October to release the current 330's to either op further afield i.e. LAX or to go on lease to a 787 operator needing replacement capacity. The 757's will be operated by ACL a well known provider of aircraft for DHL/Fed Ex, with a mix of EI and ACL Flight Deck and EI Cabin Crew

oh they will be lovely wearing the green !!!

Flew them from Chicago to Dublin and back - one of the best A330 rides I've ever had - except for a drunk passenger that the crew had to subdue - but - excellent service, and loved doing immigration in Dublin - saved a WHOLE lot of time on the way back - I too am green with envy!!!!

For our Honeymoon in April 1987, we flew on an Aer Lingus 747 that was on seasonal lease to Air Jamaica. Going down we flew from JFK to Montego Bay. For the return flight a week later, we stopped in Kingston, (only about a 20 minute flight over the mountains) then on to JFK. Now that I think of it, that was my last flight on a 747.
