Highlights include the inaugural flight to Lapland on Monday, October 27 - perfect for some early Christmas magic. The following day, Tuesday, sees the first flight to Madrid, offering passengers a sunny escape to the Spanish capital. For those enchanted by the Portuguese island of Madeira, the new year-round service now makes winter visits possible.
Shannon Airport will offer over 220 weekly flights to 24 destinations. Travellers can choose from a wide range of options including Aer Lingus routes to New York, Boston and Paris as well as Ryanair services to Lanzarote, Liverpool, Malaga, Manchester and many more.
Commenting on the busy Bank Holiday ahead, Airport Director of Shannon Airport, Niall Kearns said: "We’ve had a fantastic start to 2025 and an exceptionally busy summer, so it’s great to see that momentum continue into the Halloween Bank Holiday. Achieving a 9% increase in passenger numbers compared to the same period last year is a strong indicator of the confidence travellers have in Shannon Airport as we roll out our winter schedule."
"Our team is ready to make sure that every passenger has a hassle-free start to their journey. We’re especially excited to welcome those flying to Lapland - hopefully they’ll put in a good word for us with Santa!" he added.
