The Shannon Airport Group has welcomed the announcement that Aer Lingus will increase its service from Shannon Airport to Paris this summer.
The airline will provide an extra weekly flight on Tuesday mornings from May 5th, aligning with the existing Aer Lingus flights to Paris Charles de Gaulle on Thursdays and Sundays.
The increased frequency promises to offer passengers even more flexibility when travelling to the French capital for business or leisure, as well as improved options for onward connections via this important European hub.
The announcement follows Aer Lingus’ announcement last year that it will boost its Shannon–Boston schedule from three flights to ten per week during the peak summer season.
Speaking today, Ray O’Driscoll, Interim CEO of The Shannon Airport Group, said: “We are delighted with Aer Lingus’ decision to increase frequency on the Shannon to Paris route.
“This enhancement is a significant boost for the region, strengthening our international connectivity and supporting the growing demand we have seen since the service launched in September 2024.
“The additional weekly flight will not only offer greater choice for business and leisure passengers travelling to the French capital but will also open up more opportunities for visitors from France to experience the Wild Atlantic Way and all that our region has to offer.
“Aer Lingus continues to play a vital role in connecting the Mid-West via its existing services from Shannon to New York, Boston, London Heathrow, and now an expanded European schedule.
“We warmly welcome this latest investment, which further strengthens Shannon’s position as a key international gateway.”
