Aer Lingus is trimming its North American network for the 2026-27 winter season, dropping three US routes while shifting several other services to seasonal summer-only operations.
The airline confirmed it will end nonstop flights from Dublin to Denver, Minneapolis–St. Paul and Las Vegas as part of a broader network adjustment beginning in the fourth quarter of 2026.
The Dublin–Denver route will be the first to go, with the final flight scheduled for September 29, 2026. Service between Dublin and Minneapolis–St. Paul will end on October 25, 2026.
Aer Lingus will also withdraw from the Las Vegas market, with flights due to end on December 3, 2026. The Dublin–Seattle service will operate only during the summer schedule, with flights suspended between October 25, 2026, and April 26, 2027.
In addition to the US cuts, Aer Lingus is also converting three European routes to seasonal operations. Flights between Dublin and Frankfurt will not operate from November 3, 2026, through March 27, 2027. The Dublin–Hamburg route will be suspended over the same period. Flights between Dublin and Malta will pause from November 5, 2026, until March 16, 2027.
The schedule revisions are part of Aer Lingus’ seasonal network planning across Europe with a reduced offer on leisure and secondary markets during the quieter months.
Despite the reductions, Aer Lingus will continue to operate an extensive transatlantic network from Dublin and Shannon, maintaining service to major US gateways including New York, Boston, Chicago, Orlando, Miami, Washington DC, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Los Angeles.
