Aer Lingus announced the launch of Ireland’s first nonstop flight from Dublin to Nashville, Tennessee, starting April 12, 2025. The new route will operate four times a week using the carrier’s yet-to-be-delivered Airbus A321XLR aircraft.
The airline will operate the route almost year-round with a pause in January and February. Between Dublin and Nashville, the flight time is scheduled at nine hours and five minutes; it’s eight hours and 10 minutes from Nashville to Dublin.
“We are thrilled to add Nashville to our expanding North American network, offering Irish customers direct access into one of the most exciting and culturally rich cities in the United States,” said Susanne Carberry, Aer Lingus’ chief commercial officer, in a news release. “The connection between Irish and American country music runs deep and Nashville’s iconic status as the capital of country music makes it a dream destination for music lovers. Its fast-growing fashion, finance, healthcare and automotive industries also offer plenty of opportunities for business travellers.”
Nashville has seen a plethora of new international service in recent months, including Icelandair to Reykjavík along with increased capacity on British Airways’ flight to London Heathrow.
