Aer Lingus Cuts

Aer Lingus has announced it is scrapping some transatlantic services from its winter schedule.

The airline says the moves are being made to address 'significant losses' generated over the winter period on some routes. Aer Lingus says these are now being exacerbated by 'extremely weak' demand and lower fares. It comes just one month after Aer Lingus said it was suspending flights from Belfast International Airport.

The airline is stopping Shannon flights to Chicago from September 1, while services from Dublin to Washington and San Francisco are being dropped from October 25. It says the restart of these services in summer next year will be 'subject to review'.
