The commencement of the service is great news for both business and leisure passengers in Ireland and Guernsey. We anticipate strong demand for the service.

Malcolm Couper, Commercial Director of Aurigny added: ‘The whole team at Aurigny is excited to be extending our network with three times weekly direct services to Dublin.
