Nine new routes will be added to Dublin Airport this year as passenger numbers skyrocketed last year.
Passenger numbers last year increased by a whopping 231% to over 28.1 million compared to 2021 when Covid-19 curbs were still in place. Despite the massive jump, passengers numbers through Dublin Airport are still only at 85% of the pre-Covid metrics.
Aer Lingus is adding three new summer routes this year to Kos in Greece, Olbia in Sardinia and Brindisi in Italy. Two transatlantic routes will be added through the year as well. A new route to Cleveland, Ohio will commence in May and the Hartford, Connecticut flight is set to return on March 26.
