United Airlines Dublin-US Flights 2025

If you thought Guinness flowed smoothly, wait until you see United Airlines' summer 2025 schedule out of Dublin. In a move that screams "more flights, more craic," United is boosting its Ireland-US capacity by a whopping 40%—just in time for the summer rush when half of Ireland packs its bags for America (and half of America comes here to find their long-lost cousins).

Double Trouble to Washington DC

Starting March 29, 2025, United is doubling down on its Dublin-Washington Dulles route—going from one flight a day to two. That’s double the chance to make it to DC on time, double the free inflight snacks, and double the polite arguments over window seats.

Dreamliner Delight to Chicago

Fancy a trip to the Windy City? United’s also upgrading its Dublin-Chicago route with the sleek, state-of-the-art Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Translation: comfier seats, fancier cabins, and mood lighting that will make you feel like you’re flying straight into a rom-com set at 35,000 feet.

More Seats Than Any Other US Airline

United already flies daily from Dublin to Newark (that’s New York, for those still googling), with seasonal services from Shannon to Newark and Chicago. But come summer 2025, United will be offering more seats from Dublin than any other US airline. If the Emerald Isle’s looking a little crowded, just hop a flight to the US—there’s plenty of room for everyone.

“Over 150 Places to Go”

Karolien De Hertogh, United’s director of sales for the UK and Ireland, put it best: “For summer 2025, our customers in Ireland can benefit from seamless connectivity via our hubs in Newark, Chicago, and Washington DC to over 150 onward destinations across the Americas.” In other words, from Dublin, you can pretty much get anywhere from Miami to Montana.

Meanwhile, JetBlue Wants in Too

Not to be outdone, JetBlue is expanding its European routes faster than you can say “What about my Avios?”

• Boston to Madrid: Daily seasonal flights kick off May 22 to October 24. Ole!
• Boston to Edinburgh: Daily service runs from May 23 to October 25—giving Scottish-Americans a straight shot back to the land of tartan.
• JetBlue’s also keeping its existing routes to London Heathrow, Paris CDG, Amsterdam Schiphol, Dublin, and more from Boston and New York JFK.

More Flights, More Options, Less FOMO

Between United and JetBlue, summer 2025 is shaping up to be a golden age for transatlantic travel. Whether you’re headed to Washington to see the monuments, Madrid for tapas, or Chicago to eat your weight in deep-dish pizza, the options are endless, and the seats are ready.

Six New Routes, One EasyJet Summer: More Sunscreen, More Sangria!

Hold on to your boarding passes, because easyJet is on a roll! The airline just announced a big summer shake-up for 2025, featuring six shiny new routes from four UK airports, an extra plane at Bristol, and enough budget-friendly fares to keep your wallet (and travel plans) happy.

Where Are We Off To?

Manchester and Edinburgh: Say hello to Milan Linate starting March 30, 2025. That’s seven days a week to embrace pasta, prosecco, and impeccable Italian fashion.

Birmingham: It’s all about variety with twice-weekly flights to Bordeaux (from May 1—wine lovers, rejoice!) and year-round flights to Gibraltar (kicking off June 1), so you can sip and sunbathe to your heart's content.

Bristol: EasyJet’s giving us double the Mediterranean bliss with twice-weekly flights to Almeria (from June 24—think Costa del Sol without the chaos) and Palermo (starting June 26—where gelato counts as a meal).

A Fleet of Dreams

Bristol is getting its 19th easyJet aircraft, and that’s not all. With more planes at Manchester, Edinburgh, and Birmingham, plus a shiny new base opening at London Southend next spring, easyJet is making the UK its personal runway.

Did you know? Each UK-based aircraft creates 400 jobs and generates a cool £27 million in local economic benefits. Not bad for an airline where you can book a flight and still afford snacks on board.

Italy: easyJet’s New Playground

Alongside Milan Linate flights, easyJet is flexing its wings in Italy. A five-aircraft base at Milan Linate opens next spring, right after it takes over ITA Airways’ short-haul slots. A new three-aircraft base in Rome Fiumicino also joins the roster, complementing its already impressive hubs at Milan Malpensa and Naples.

What does this mean for you? Easier hops between the UK and Italy, so you can zip from Birmingham to Bordeaux on Thursday and be sipping Negronis in Naples by Saturday.

Six New Routes, One EasyJet Summer

With these new routes, extra planes, and a focus on affordable escapes, easyJet is gearing up for a record-breaking summer. So, what are you waiting for? Grab your sunglasses, snag a deal, and let easyJet fly you to your next adventure—because let’s face it, your 2025 is already looking brighter.

American Airlines Expands Routes for Summer 2025 - Get Ready for a European Adventure 

Just as you’re cozying up with pumpkin spice lattes and oversized scarves, American Airlines is plotting something big for your summer 2025 travel plans. Forget raking leaves; it's time to plan your escape to Europe. AA is adding five brand-new routes to its European network, and trust us, you’ll want to pack your bags for these destinations: Edinburgh, Athens, Madrid, Milan, and Rome. Yes, that means more transatlantic flights to whisk you away to dreamy places where carbs don’t count, and the architecture is older than the internet.

Castles, Pasta, and Mythology – Oh My!

Let’s break it down: say you are joining the migratory or traveling population and you are flying out of Philadelphia (PHL), you can say you are the chosen one. The journey does not end there because apart from over 80 domestic points you get to connect, there are about 17 new routes across the Atlantic among them one to Edinburgh in Scotland. Get comfortable because if its currently winter where you are, very soon travellers will be exchanging their cheesesteaks for haggis (or not) as they roam around ancient castles wondering if they are secret beings of royalty.

Going to Italy? Well, it seems like American Airlines has got you covered as it recently introduced Miami (MIA) Rome (FCO) flights and PHL Milan (MXP) flights. By 2025, expect that American will roll out Italian destinations more than you have pasta recipes, making sure that summer leaves you, pizza, art and those dreamlike landscapes that give your instagram followers the worst of FOMO.

Charlotte to Athens anyone? The new route from Charlotte to Athens will get you to Acropolis country before you can utter civilization. And having four daily services to Greece by 2025, American is going to be the airline with the most knowledge on greek mythology.

Tapas, Sun, and Siestas: Chicago to Madrid

If using Atlanta to reach Spain is not your style, then there's nothing to be worried about. The American hub (ORD) located in Chicago is joining the fray emerging from the mumbai heat with its new route to Madrid. Now you can cross the ocean and find yourself in the land of Flamenco and Sangria and Spanish siestas. Should you decide to fly out of Madrid, the American airline’s hubs will allow you to navigate around Europe, Africa and the Middle East for those who want to travel but don’t want to commit.

More Flights, More Fun

If for whatever reason summer 2025 currently lacks plans for lounging with a cocktail in a beach club somewhere in Europe, American Airlines is going all in with over 70 departures per day to more than 20 transatlantic destinations. They will also be working on popular Kosharov routes such as CPH, NAP and NCE after supporting summer 2024, because more time in the land of Danish pastries, Neapolitan Pizzas and French Riviera never hurts anyone.

Ladies and Gentlemen, for the romantics, American’s winter service to Paris from Miami is sticking around for the summer season even. “Great,” said nobody, because now you can plan that picture-perfect Eiffel Tower moment during summer as well.

Bonus: Expanding Premium Offerings to Asia

Oh, and if Europe isn’t enough for you, American is also pumping up its routes to Asia for summer 2025. Bigger planes will connect Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) and Los Angeles (LAX) to Japan, making sure you’ve got plenty of space to stretch out and dream about sushi as you head to Tokyo and beyond. With easy connections to over 30 destinations across Japan and East Asia, your passport is about to get a serious workout.

American Airlines Expands Routes for Summer 2025

So, what are you waiting for? Summer 2025 is practically begging you to take a European (or Asian) adventure, and American Airlines is making sure you get there with style, convenience, and probably more than one in-flight snack.

American Airlines to resume Edinburgh-Philadelphia Route

Gather 'round, tartan enthusiasts and Philly cheesesteak fans alike—American Airlines is making a grand return to Edinburgh! Starting May 24, 2025, the airline will reinstate its daily seasonal route between Edinburgh and Philadelphia, offering a direct flight for those who want to swap haggis for hoagies and bagpipes for baseball.

The direct flight, last spotted in 2019, will cruise the skies aboard a sleek Boeing 787-800. Here’s the flight schedule, so you can set your alarms, pack your kilts, and prepare for some cross-continental escapades:

• Edinburgh (EDI) to Philadelphia (PHL): Flight AA 0279 departs at 11:35 AM and arrives Philadelphia at 2:00 PM on the same day for the season May 24 – October 5. Ideally suited to those who would wish to gain their jet leg with more of afternoon tea.

• Philadelphia (PHL) to Edinburgh (EDI): Flight AA 0278 leaves the airport at 7:05 PM and arrives the next day at 7:00 AM (May 23 – October 4). Most fortuitously, in time to get the very early first bus to the highlands – or the very first pub in Edinburgh.

This airborne gathering aims to position Edinburgh Airport, a member of the VINCI Airports network, as the transatlantic hub. This will help the city reclaim its pre-Covid glamour and the Scottish passengers’ epic cross-Atlantic trips will be connected seamlessly once again.

Gordon Dewar, Chief Executive at Edinburgh Airport  - was so happy and declared, “We’re absolutely delighted to welcome American Airlines back! There is no denying the fact that this particular route will definitely address the long hanging demand for traffic between Scotland and North America. We’re ready to welcome our American friends with open arms—and maybe a few extra kilts!”

This was also the gauging sentiment shared by José Freig, who is the Vice President of International Operations for American Airlines. “The leisure market particularly towards Europe, is actually booming and even more to the user friendly cities like Edinburgh. With this route, it has also become easier for Scots to cross over to Philadelphia and explore the city’s famous attractions, and in turn, the residents of that city can indulge in Scottish history and the pipes, without the need to make a stop.

American Airlines to resume Edinburgh-Philadelphia Route

Be it the heritage embraced by the medieval styled buildings in Scotland or beef slabs encapsulated in Philly just American Airlines is at hand to fly the people all over. Grab your stuffs quickly and prepare yourself for a fantastic journey that encompasses wonderful views but it’s not only scenic views which are offered its a journey filled with lots of fun and some wise cracks too probably!!!”
