THE City of Brotherly Love and the Emerald City will become even more accessible with Aer Lingus adding Philadelphia and Seattle to its transatlantic routes in 2018.

Flights to Philadelphia start in late March, according to the airline’s Jenny Rafter and will increase to daily in May, (just in time for the iconic Devon Horse Show, held on the city’s outskirts). Ireland’s first direct flight to Seattle on the west coast begins in May.
