The Taste of America Roadshow has officially landed in Shannon… and what a night it was!

Huge congratulations to our superstar winners Freda Lane and Sheila Treacy from Ace Travel! Freda won two return tickets from Shannon Airport to New York with Aer Lingus.

Sheila scooped two return tickets from Shannon Airport to Boston with Aer Lingus PLUS accommodation in the Bostonian Hotel and attraction tickets courtesy of Tony Lane & Visit Boston.

Absolutely amazing prizes… and would you believe every member of Ace Travel won on the night?! Lotto tickets this weekend, ladies! I hope you’ve stopped shaking Sheila. Don continues his travels with the fantastic Aer Lingus team – Ivan, Lyndsey and Liza – alongside our valued 26 USA Trade Partners, with Shannon wrapped up and Cork next on the roadmap!

It was a brilliant evening at the impressive Strand Hotel, Limerick, proudly sponsored by Isabel Harrisson and Declan Power from Shannon Airport. Travel agents travelled from across the country – from Castlebar, Galway, Limerick, Kilkenny and Carlow – to support Day Three of the Aer Lingus Trade Support Roadshow.

The energy in the room was electric

Connections were made

Valuable USA insights were shared

And strong support continues for Aer Lingus direct services to the USA from Shannon and Dublin

Travelbiz was there to meet, greet and connect with our valued retail and wholesale partners – and we’ll be bringing you a full update (including all prize winners!) in this week’s Trade Update on our all-new Trade Partners Hub www.travelbiz.ie
