Southampton airport launches new USA connections

Flybe has signed a new codeshare agreement with Dublin-based airline Aer Lingus for flights from Southampton Airport. This enables Southampton passengers to access, via a single stop in Dublin, an even wider range of destinations across North America including Boston, New York, San Francisco, Orlando, Chicago and Toronto.

Customers need to book their flight via the Aer Lingus website or through local travel agents and, with just one airline ticket, they can enjoy seamless onward flights through Dublin. The added benefit is that Dublin Airport also provides US Customs pre-clearance meaning that passengers arrive in the United States asa 'domestic passenger' and can proceed straight through to arrivals at their destination, by-passing lengthy US Customs and Immigration queues.
