Flight Disruption Information

Important information – Manchester transatlantic services

We are currently undergoing a period of uncertainty on transatlantic services at our Manchester base.

To minimise customer disruption in the event of a closure of the Manchester base, which operates transatlantic flights from Manchester to New York, Orlando and Barbados, Aer Lingus is no longer selling transatlantic flights to/from Manchester for travel from 31 March 2026.

There is no impact on Aer Lingus or Aer Lingus Regional flights between Manchester and Ireland.

We appreciate our customers' patience and cooperation during this time and we are contacting customers directly regarding their flights.

If you have contacted us to request an alternative flight, please be assured that we are working on your request and will be in touch in due course.
