What is a code share flight?

A code share is a deal struck between airlines to carry each other's passengers. This allows carriers to provide passengers with a much wider choice of destinations. The flight number of the airline you book with will appear on your ticket and the operating carrier should appear in your flight details.


What is US preclearance?

Passengers travelling to the US directly from Dublin or Shannon Airport have the opportunity to undertake all immigration and custom inspections at the airport prior to departure; thereby arriving as domestic passengers to the US. This makes for a smoother and faster arrival process and also allows for any luggage to be checked through to the final destination.
