ST. LOUIS — Nashville International Airport has won yet another nonstop route to Europe.
Airport officials in Nashville revealed a new flight to Dublin, Ireland, on Friday morning — marking the airport's second new nonstop announcement in as many months. The deal with Aer Lingus arrives almost simultaneously with the news just days ago of a nonstop route that Icelandair will fly to Reykjavik.
And just like that, BNA has tripled its nonstop overseas offerings. British Airways flies daily to and from London, a connection that has existed for most of the last six years (save for a pause during the early stage of the pandemic).
The St. Louis Business Journal reported last week that St. Louis officials have sought a nonstop Dublin flight on Aer Lingus, though it wasn't clear what stage any bid was in.
A spokesman for St. Louis Lambert International Airport declined to comment Monday on the Nashville announcement.
