Happy hour on Aer Arann

Irish airline Aer Arann is launching a happy hour to help holidaymakers uncover a few less noted corners of Ireland.

The happy hour runs from 13:00 to 14:00 on Thursday and Friday on the Aer Arann's website, www.aerarann.com, and offers some exclusive flight deals.

Thursday and Friday lunchtimes have been chosen for the promotion as they are the time people are most likely to research where to go and what to do over the weekend.

Colin Lewis, head of sales and marketing at Aer Arann, said: "With holidaymakers searching for flights at the end of the working week, we thought we would give them an added bonus of being able to receive special deals during 'Happy Hour' to inspire travel to Ireland this winter."

The routes on offer in Aer Arann's happy hour vary each week but are chosen from the airlines 36 different routes operating between the UK and Ireland, as well as the 16 inter-Ireland routes which form Aer Arann’s winter schedule.
