Following Ireland’s success at the Paris Olympics, Team Ireland is looking to continue to strong showing at the Paralympic Games and recently set off in pursuit of more medals.
Ireland’s Paralympic Cycling and Triathlon teams recently embarked on the first stage of their journey to the 2024 Paralympics with Aer Lingus – travelling to their training camp in Portugal before joining the rest of Team Ireland in France.
The 2024 Paralympic Games take place between August 28 and September 8.
Susanne Carberry, Aer Lingus Chief Customer Officer, said: “Our partnership with Paralympics Ireland is a source of immense pride for Aer Lingus, and we are honoured to play our part in their journey to Paris. Since our partnership began back in 2020, we have supported the para-athletes journey to Tokyo and to World Games and training camps in preparation for Paris. We are immensely proud of them and wish them all the luck in Paris. We are committed to providing the best possible support to our athletes, coaches, families, and the many Irish supporters who will bring home advantage to Paris.”
Stephen McNamara, CEO of Paralympics Ireland, added: “The excitement within the Irish Paralympic community is palpable as we head to Paris. Comfortable and dependable travel is essential for our athletes, and we know that Aer Lingus will provide just that and we are grateful for their support.
“As we wave our athletes off, we send with them our best wishes as they fulfil their lifelong ambition to represent their country, communities, and families on the global stage.”
