THE THREE FLIGHTS PER WEEK WILL REPLACE A SERVICE PREVIOUSLY OFFERED BY RYANAIR, WHICH HAS NOW STOPPED ALL FLIGHTS TO AND FROM BORDEAUX A new seasonal flight route between Bordeaux and Cork

will open in May 2025.  Operated by Irish flag carrier Aer Lingus, the route will run three times per week – Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday – until September 2025, leaving France at 15:55

and arriving at 16:45 in Ireland.  Return flights from Cork will run three times per week on the same days. Tickets begin at €59.99 one-way. A flight between the two cities was previously

operated by Ryanair prior to the low-cost carrier’s departure from Bordeaux-Mérignac airport earlier this year.  Read more: Bordeaux airport: ‘Ryanair pulling out was our worst-case

scenario’ Aer Lingus currently operates a flight to Dublin from the French city. The new Bordeaux route is part of the carrier’s summer expansion, with flights to Bilbao also set to be

available from Ireland’s second-largest city. “These new routes from Cork provide our customers with more opportunities to explore European culture. Bilbao and Bordeaux are both rich in

history and heritage, and we know our customers will enjoy new direct connections to discover these destinations. These routes are fantastic additions to Aer Lingus’ network,” said Reid

Moody, Chief Strategy and Planning Officer at Aer Lingus.
