Aer Lingus is to delay
the start of its scheduled Manchester to New York JFK and Manchester to Orlando
services because of continuing restrictions on travel into the USA.
Both New York and
Orlando services were due to start on 30 September but will now launch on 1
December and 11 December respectively.
The airline is offering
passengers who have already booked a full refund, re-accommodation on an
alternative service or the option of a voucher with an additional 10 per cent,
for use across the Aer Lingus network over the next five years.
The airline
said it “remains fully committed to its services from Manchester Airport and
its new non-stop Manchester to Barbados service will commence as planned on 20
October”.
