Travel Day
An honest review of flying long haul flight with Aer Lingus. This includes my experience with using the Aer Lingus App, on-line check in, USA pre-clearance, in-flight entertainment, in-flight service, food and drink. I look at legroom in an Economy flight with Aer Lingus.

USA pre-clearance from Ireland was first introduced in Shannon Airport at least 20 years ago, wayyyyy before Dubland airport, just saying.
Thanks Andy. Yeah someone else had commented and let me know that Shannon also had it. I didn’t even know you could fly internationally from there. Pre-clearance is a huge benefit!
I appreciate your candid review here. I have come to see that your critiques are honest and measured, without being hostile. You always provide valuable travel info. Much appreciated.
I appreciate that! That is always the aim. I try to keep it factual and throw in my personal opinion. Everyone one will have their own opinions.
Had a similar experience when I flew from Dublin- Cleveland with them. Hot drink after dinner and then nothing else all flight till the snack. I had to go ask a few times as well. Thankyou for sharing your planned view on it and know it’s probably the standard service on that airline 😂
@@kirstymclaren1420 thanks for watching and commenting. I’ve used them again in May (video not up yet) and it was more positive. Still think they should have a free bar service tho 😂
@@thekennafamilyadventures5 that’s reassuring to hear, I look forward to seeing as I’m planning them again in 3 months. I wouldn’t be using the free bar outbound myself but would be nice to have a drink as an option myself personally for the return
Think you focused way too much on the alcohol and neglected a lot of other things in the process
Thanks for watching the video. Apart from the alcohol, which I wouldn’t have had anyway, the overall service and experience wasn’t great. It’s only my opinion and I understand others may have a different experience and opinion in the matter.
Thank you for posting this helpful video. I would say that as we’ll be visiting friends in the summer we found roughly Aer Lingus were £500 cheaper than the big carriers - so on reflection, me and my wife will be having a G&t 😅
Interesting that BA (part of the same group) were often charging a few hundred quid more but using Aer Lingus for return flights.
Thanks for the comment and I’m glad you found it useful. I know Aer Lingus run pretty reasonably priced flights to Orlando via Manchester but anything direct from Dublin always comes up quite expensive when we’ve looked. There’s always been other options that were better value. It’s only my opinion but in general I don’t think the overall service with Aer Lingus is great. Thanks again and I hope you have a great trip.
Thanks a lot, travelling first time using this airline to Dulles, really helpful. God Bless you. Tc
No problem. Glad you found it useful. I have another similar video going up from a recent trip soon. Better experience this time.
Shannon has pre clearance as well. Great video. The 321 Neo is fab. They are a game changer aircraft for some transatlantic routes.
Thanks for the info. I wasn’t aware of that. I didn’t know you could fly to the US from Shannon. Can you tell me who flies transatlantic from there? We love the pre-clearance. It makes such a difference after a long flight!
@@thekennafamilyadventures5Aer Lingus fly to New York JFK & Boston, United fly Chicago and Newark and Delta are back this year flying to New York JFK aswell. Not bad for a small airport like Shannon😅 It’s got a long history of transatlantic routes. Agree with u on pre clearance. Love ur videos and ye seem like such a really nice family.
In regards to what airlines charge for alcohol on long haul flights:
Condor : charge, also charge for headphones and extra movue selection
LOT : charges on LH flights
LH : charges for spirits on LH flights
AA charge - beer/wine 9$, spirits 10$
Also Iceland Air charge for all alcohol and also food on LH flights
IB charge on LH
SAS charges on LH flights
Just to name a few ...
Thanks . I didn’t know that. Not sure we can fly Condor from the UK or Ireland. I’ve flown AA transatlantic and had complimentary bar before. Maybe it depends on the route?
Not just Ireland but in general. You may connect.
Condor charges for pretty much everything I was suprised.
Some have free beer and wine and spirits for purchase. LH group made this cut recently
i flew from dublin with AA recently and the is no charge for alcohol, condor are not a full service airline and are the cheaper alternative to lufthansa and operate the basic model ie cheap base fare and anything extra comes at a cost
Did Lingus to Tenerife once. Never again
Thanks Geoff. Not my favourite airline but sometimes they have great deals. We’re actually using them to Orlando next month. I’ll have to start saving so I can have a couple of beers 😂
@@thekennafamilyadventures5 agree with you totally Paul. Whether you would like a drink or not. Long haul, they should be free. I’ve never heard of it not being the case mate
super ~ )
Aer Lingus is the “value carrier” within the IAG group and was very much a budget carrier before becoming part of the group.
Thanks for your comment. I wasn’t aware of that. I suppose they don’t think of themselves or promote themselves as a budget carrier anymore and their prices certainly wouldn’t suggest that. Have you flown with them recently?
The business class seats on the A321’ Neos are the same as the seats on the A330’s, so they are full lie flat beds.
Thanks for the input. I wasn’t aware of that ! Have you traveled business class on this aircraft yourself?
@@thekennafamilyadventures5 No problem. I’ve travelled transatlantic on their A330’s in business but not on their A321’s. But they use some of these A321’s on the early morning DUB - LHR route in between their transatlantic flights and it’s not much extra to book these seats. It’s only an hour flight at most but nice to experience the seat if you haven’t experienced it before.
Great video tough
Thanks Andrew. Glad you enjoyed it.
what kind of questions did they ask you at preclearance?
Hi Phil, why I’m travelling, what I’ll be doing work wise when I’m there. Is there someone in the US who could do my job? A few more questions than normal. Do you use pre-clearance?
@@thekennafamilyadventures5 Heading to the US via Dublin in the summer, so it will be the first time using preclearance. This video has been brilliant in helping to know where I'm going. Thanks
Alcohol is not free on any trans Atlantic aerlingus flight don’t be cheap and go business if u want it all free
@@grahamdaly4172 hi Graham, thanks for watching. I’m not that bothered. I was on a work trip so wouldn’t have been drinking much anyway. It was more of the point that it’s the only carrier that doesn’t offer it and the flights don’t cost any less. United and America. Are normally cheaper in price. I’ve flown Aer Lingus again recently and had a more positive experience. Vlog will be up next week.
It was from Luton and an aweful experience. Sorry
I had a better experience in May when I flew to Dulles again. Hit and miss.
