“We are thrilled to be recognised with this prestigious award which is a recognition of the efforts of the entire United team in Ireland,” commented Karolien De Hertogh, United Director Sales UK and Ireland. “We look forward to another successful year in 2024 and are committed to providing the highest level of service to our customers and travel industry partners in Ireland.”

In Ireland, United recently marked a quarter of a century of flying from Dublin, a significant milestone for the airline. United offers year-round daily non-stop flights from Dublin to New York/Newark and Washington Dulles, with its New York/Newark service increasing to double daily service in Summer 2024, as well as summer seasonal flights between Dublin and Chicago O’Hare and from Shannon to New York/Newark and Chicago O’Hare. Customers can benefit from U.S. Customs and Border Protection Preclearance in Dublin and Shannon, meaning no security or waiting on arrival in the U.S. and easier onward connections.
