Aer Lingus Has Roundtrip Flight Deals to Dublin for Under $500

For travelers seeking a sign to plan their next vacation, this flight sale might be the one.

Aer Lingus, a discount air carrier based in Dublin, Ireland, recently released several discounted flights throughout the end of summer and early fall, which can provide a last-minute summer European getaway. 

The airline is offering a special deal of a flight to Boston to Dublin with availability through the fall, for $498 roundtrip in the airline’s economy cabin. For $502, travelers can fly from New York’s JFK Airport to Dublin, also throughout the fall. 

From the midwest, Aer Lingus is offering deals on direct flights from Cleveland, OH and Chicago, IL to Dublin between September 11 and November 20, for under $575 round-trip in economy. The discounted fares are in the airline’s Economy – Saver category, which includes one carry-on bag, and a meal. For approximately $90 more, travelers can get the Economy – Smart fare class, which includes a checked bag and advanced seat selection. 

All of the deals are posted on Aer Lingus’ website, in a special section of flights from the US. Travelers can input their origin airport, and even maximum budget, to find the cheapest flights. 

Aer Lingus was founded in 1936 and is the official airline for Ireland, and even has a whimsical shamrock on the tail. The airline operates service from New York’s JFK to both Dublin and Shannon, as well as flights to Dublin from Boston, Washington, Philadelphia, Orlando, and more. 

Flying in and out of Dublin’s airport can be a time-saver for international travelers as it has a rare distinction of being a pre-clearance airport. This means travelers skip customs in the United States airport by completing the process on site in Dublin, which can be faster due to less flights using the facility. 

Tourism from the USA to Ireland is on the rise. More than 1 million American tourists visited Ireland in 2023, with an average stay in the country of 8 days, according to a IrishCentral news report. In an effort to spread the word about Ireland, the official tourism board for the country recently debuted a new marketing campaign called “Fill your heart with Ireland” featuring the heritage and activities available by visiting.
