SAD BREAKING NEWS: Aer Lingus UK suspends transatlantic flight sales from to North America from 31st March 2026, due to “uncertainty” on the future of its Manchester base.

Aer Lingus said it will begin consulting with staff on “mitigating job losses which would occur in the event of a base closure” in coming days.

The statement continued, saying: “To minimise disruption for passengers, the airline has paused the sale of transatlantic flights to and from Manchester for travel from 31 March 2026. This currently affects long-haul services linking Manchester with New York, Orlando and Barbados. It’s important to note that short-haul services are unaffected with all Aer Lingus Regional and mainline flights between Manchester and Ireland continuing as normal.”

This is sad news for all involved and especially Aer Lingus staff based at Manchester.

Seen here departing Manchester in November 2025, is 16 year old Aer Lingus Airbus A330-302, G-EIDY, heading for Barbados.

Christmas is the time I miss my dad the most, as it’s like the heart has been taken from our family. But the odd time, you feel like there is a sign from beyond. The retro livery Boeing 787-9 is one of those moments, as one of my fondest memories of my dad is seeing the old Gulf Air Lockheed L1011 Tristar in this livery in my first trip to as a 5 year old child. Seeing this aircraft brings back all the excitement I felt back then, especially as I had just been thinking about my dad when this beauty appeared heading for the runway. I had no clue it was even this livery operating.
