Starry-eyed about LA? Catch a DIRECT flight with Aer Lingus!

Have you been dreaming of getting away from the doom and gloom of Irish weather to somewhere as glamorous as LA?

Well, thanks to Aer Lingus, who are launching new direct routes to LAX from the 4th of May, now you can! *Breathe ladies, breathe.*

Fares from Dublin to Los Angeles are going for as little as €299 from 1st September to 31st October (Not too bad, eh?)

The incredible launch comes as part of Aer Lingus’ transatlantic expansion which also includes new routes to Newark, New Jersey and Hartford Connecticut from September 2016. 

To start the official countdown of their new direct route to LA, Aer Lingus invited some lucky guests to have a 'LAXperience' on South King Street, and we understandably got stuck right in. 

Starting our day off 'the LA way' with a healthy but delish breakfast, we then channelled our inner Angeleno and got to grips with a spot of 'Hoop Yoga' (As you do).

To top it all off, there was a special performance by a street crew straight off of Venice Beach called 'The Calypso Brothers'.

Made up of dancers, acrobats, gymnasts and contortionists, these guys showcased their incredible break-dancing, body-bending and super-human strength, and made us all the more pumped to catch a flight and see them again!

Girls, it's go-time.
