Trip Report: What’s Flying Aer Lingus A321LR TransAtlantic Like?

I traveled on Aer Lingus from London to Dublin to visit Ireland for Easter break and later flew to Toronto on Aer Lingus A321LR Transatlantic. Heathrow was extremely crowded as travel are bouncing back. The Aer Lingus lounge at Heathrow is new with nice furniture. It has very limited food options (only soup and biscuits). […]

Video: 7 Hour TransAtlantic on Narrowbody – Aer Lingus A321LR + Ireland Tour

I traveled on Aer Lingus from London to Dublin to visit Ireland. Heathrow was extremely crowded as travel are bouncing back. I visited Aer Lingus Lounge at Heathrow. Then, to my surprise, I received an upgrade to Business Class onboard the new Aer Lingus A321LR. Flight to Dublin was a short 55 minutes hop. After landing in Dublin, I went to plane-spotting at Dublin Airport. The next day I drove around the Irish countryside to visit Galway, Cliff of Mohr and Shannon. The scenery and people are both lovely in Ireland.

After 2 days, I flew out of Dublin to Toronto on another brand new Aer Lingus A321LR. Aer Lingus has decent Business Class products and I particularly enjoyed the meal onboard.
