Dublin Airport has welcomed Flybe’s announcement that it is to launch a new service between Dublin and Yorkshire. The airline will operate a six times per week service from Dublin Airport to Yorkshire’s Doncaster Sheffield Airport from the end of October.
Vincent Harrison, Dublin Airport Managing Director, said: “We are delighted that Flybe is adding Yorkshire to Dublin Airport’s route network, providing further choice and flexibility for our customers.
“The scheduling of this new service will facilitate passengers who wish to connect onwards to one of 11 destinations to the USA. Customers can avail of US Pre-clearance on these flights, which enables passengers to save time on arrival in the USA. The only queue a precleared passenger encounters on arrival in the USA is the taxi queue to their final destination.”
Vincent Hodder, Flybe’s Chief Revenue Officer, said: “We are really pleased that we can offer Yorkshire travellers a continuing service between Doncaster Sheffield and Dublin, one of Ireland’s most vibrant and cultural cities.
“We have timed flights to maximise convenience. The early weekday flights mean that business travellers can make the most of having a full working day, and there is more opportunity for travellers wanting to travel onwards to the USA and Canada.”
