About Aer Lingus
Aer Lingus was founded by the Irish Government in April 1936 to provide air services to/from Ireland. The first flight, from Dublin to Bristol, took place on May 27th 1936. On October 2nd 2006, Aer Lingus entered a new phase in its history with the airline's floatation on the Irish and London Stock Exchanges, becoming a publicly quoted company and realising €400 million in equity for the airline's future growth.
In addition to revenue from low fares, Aer Lingus also generates revenue from sales of products and services that are ancillary to its core passenger operations, including in-flight sales of merchandise, beverages and hot and cold meals, as well as commissions from sales of car rentals, hotel accommodation and travel insurance through aerlingus.com, and fees for passenger upgrades, access to airport lounges, commissions from online currency conversion and advertising in Aer Lingus' in-flight magazine.
Aer Lingus provides a cargo transportation service on some of its scheduled passenger routes, including to the United States, the Middle East, and Europe. Aer Lingus provides mail transportation services between Ireland and the United Kingdom. In addition to providing its own cargo handling services at Dublin and Shannon airports, Aer Lingus provides cargo handling services to Singapore Airlines, SAS and Lufthansa.
