Win Your Holiday Wishlist with Shannon Airport – Kathryn Thomas teams up for 100‑flight giveaway

Win Your Holiday Wishlist with Shannon Airport Travel guru Kathryn Thomas teams up with Shannon Airport to celebrate  “The Best Place To Fly From” with a 100‑flight giveaway.

Shannon Airport has launched a huge 100‑flight giveaway to celebrate its new brand campaign, “The Best Place To Fly From” – inviting passengers to dream big, build their perfect holiday wishlist, and be in with a chance to fly for free. The giveaway will see 50 people each win a pair of flights, all departing from Shannon Airport.

Winners will be following in the little footsteps of Robin and Wren, the animated birds and “frequent fliers” who star in Shannon Airport’s new brand campaign – a celebration of the airport’s famously friendly and hassle‑free experience. The campaign builds on Shannon Airport’s established reputation as Ireland’s Favourite Airport, earned through its award‑winning customer experience and status as Ireland’s top airport brand for a third consecutive year (RED C BRII 2025).

Adding extra star power, Irish travel guru Kathryn Thomas is partnering with the airport on the competition as its new brand ambassador. Kathryn will be popping up across Shannon Airport’s social media channels, sharing her own travel wishlist, guiding people through how to enter, and spotlighting what makes Shannon “The Best Place To Fly From”.
Running for four weeks, the giveaway features an impressive line‑up of destinations. Prizes include flights to exciting European cities such as Paris, Rome and Frankfurt, sun‑soaked favourites like Faro, Lanzarote and Palma, as well as popular US destinations including New York, Boston and Chicago.

In week four, all entries will roll into a Grand Prize draw, giving lucky winners the chance to fly to bucket‑list destinations such as Nashville, Orlando, Las Vegas and San Francisco, made possible thanks to easy onward connections from Shannon via European and US hubs.

Speaking today, Emily Brown, Brand Manager at Shannon Airport, said: “We wanted to celebrate the brilliant reaction to our new brand ad – and our feathered frequent fliers – with something genuinely exciting for passengers nationwide. What better way to do that than by launching our biggest ever giveaway of flights? With 40 routes available from Shannon this year, plus exciting onward connections, this really could be a once‑in‑a‑lifetime win for 50 lucky winners. We’re thrilled to have Kathryn Thomas on board to share her experience of Shannon, and champion why so many people believe that Shannon Airport truly is ‘The Best Place To Fly From’.”

Kathryn Thomas added: “Everyone knows I love to travel – and I love airports – so I’m absolutely delighted to be part of a competition that’s giving away 100 free flights from a hassle‑free, award‑winning airport. This is such a fun way for people to explore the range of routes on offer from Shannon, whether that’s a city break, some sunshine or a dream US destination. Creating your own holiday wishlist and then possibly heading off for free? That’s pretty hard to beat.”
