“The connection between the 2 Islands is strong and stems generations. Instead of cancelling service how about promote travel to Newfoundland from Ireland as much as the marketing has been done with the opposite route. We can build a great symbiotic relationship with Ireland through year round direct flights. Aer Lingus would be an amazing asset to Newfoundland tourism! Let's work together to make this happen.”

“We deserve no less and it was proven feasible.”

“I want to see my family in Ireland and I'm terrified of flights, this direct flight makes my life so much easier!”
