Big news from Ireland —Aer Lingus is rolling out not one, but TWO brand-new summer routes from Cork Airport. Starting spring 2025, you can skip the layovers and jet straight to Bilbao in Spain or Bordeaux in France. Flights start at just €59.99, so that’s practically a steal (or at least enough saved for an extra glass of wine or a plate of pintxos).
