An airline is launching flights from Glasgow Airport to a brand-new destination later this year.
Aer Lingus Regional, exclusively operated by Emerald Airlines, will officially take off at Glasgow on a new service to Cork from October 27.
This new connection with over 30,000 seats on offer gives passengers more choice for travel, whether it's for business or leisure.
Fares start from £39.99 and tickets are on sale now.
Passengers visiting Cork can immerse themselves in the city's blend of historic charm, lively arts scene, and diverse culinary offerings.
Beyond the city, Cork serves as a gateway to the picturesque countryside and stunning coastal landscapes of southern Ireland.
