AER Lingus has introduced ultra-fast, free Wi-Fi on its entire narrow-body transatlantic fleet.
Powered by Starlink, the service is now available on more than 10 North American routes, allowing passengers to stream, work, and stay connected throughout their journey.
UK travellers can connect to these destinations via Dublin from airports including Manchester, Birmingham, and London Heathrow, with Aer Lingus offering convenient onward travel to US cities such as Newark, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Nashville, and Indianapolis.
Susanne Carberry, chief customer officer at Aer Lingus, said: "Completing the Starlink rollout across our narrowbody transatlantic fleet is a significant milestone for Aer Lingus.
"Customers travelling on more than 10 North American routes can now enjoy fast, reliable connectivity throughout their journey, whether they're working, streaming, or staying in touch with family and friends.
"This achievement is also a testament to the expertise and dedication of our Maintenance & Engineering teams, who completed these installations at our Hangar 6 facility at Dublin Airport."
In addition to high-speed Wi-Fi, Aer Lingus passengers can take advantage of US Preclearance at Dublin Airport, one of only two airports in Europe to offer this service.
This allows travellers to complete US immigration and customs checks before departure.
