Aer Lingus has seen a marketing opportunity in the news that fully vaccinated Irish and European travellers can re-enter the US. The national carrier has announced a flash sale for 48 hours, with €100 off return flights to its destinations in the States.
The sale ends at midnight, tomorrow, Tuesday November 9th.
The United States will allow fully-vaccinated Irish travellers to enter from today, Monday, fully re-opening to two-way traffic for the first time since the pandemic started.
Passengers from across the world are preparing to be reunited with loved ones in the United States for the first time in nearly two years, as restrictions were lifted to allow non-U.S citizens to fly there, provided they are vaccinated.
The extraordinary US travel restrictions first imposed in early 2020 to address the spread of Covid-19, had barred access to non-U.S. citizens who, within the last 14 days had been in Ireland, Britain, the 26 Schengen countries in Europe without border controls, China, India, South Africa, Iran and Brazil.
