Less than a year after the non-stop service to Minneapolis, St. Paul was first introduced, it was put on hold because of the Covid-19 outbreak.On Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, Aer Lingus will operate four weekly round-trip flights to MSP using a widebody Airbus A330 aircraft.
The airline's Chief Strategy and Planning Officer, Reid Moody, stated that after the brief stoppage brought on by Covid, there had been a discernible demand from customers for the route to be restored.
"We are dedicated to offering passengers seamless connections between North America and Ireland, and onward from Ireland to the rest of Europe," added Moody.
"The re-introduction of this route marks the airline's full restoration of our pre-pandemic North American network and serves as a testament to this commitment," he stated.
"Minneapolis-St Paul is a significant business destination within the US and we look forward to once again facilitating corporate links and connectivity between Europe and North America, through our Dublin Hub," he stated.
