European Routes


Aer Arran currently operate flights from Galway to Lorient in France. Attempts by EuroManx to operate flights to Paris and Málaga did not prove to be commercially successful. Galway airport's runway can only handle jets up to the size of the BAe146/RJ100, making opportunities for scheduled and charter flights from Galway relatively limited, although there will be flights to Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Hamburg for the winter 2006/7 season. Numerous other onward connection opportunities are available with Aer Arran via Dublin or some of the airports they serve in the UK.
