AER LINGUS has become the first ”low fare” airline across the Atlantic since the days of the Laker Skytrain (a claim no doubt to be challenged by other carriers). All fares on direct services are now being sold on a one-way basis, the minimum stay restrictions have been removed, changes are permitted on payment of a surcharge of E25 per sector and you can now change the name on the ticket for a surcharge of E50 per booking. The same goes for the European routes. The airline says it now has the most competitive Premier Class fares on flights from Europe to the US. (see also Liverpool John Lennon Airport below). Getting into the celebratory mood with a Guinness at Liverpool John Lennon Airport are, left to right, Kay Annals of Aer Lingus, passenger Adam Murphy from Dublin, Agnieszka Lojko of Aer Lingus and passenger Sinead Kenny from Dublin. Adam and Sinead had been visiting Liverpool for shopping and to watch Liverpool FC.
