Those AT72s are a lot of fun to fly on - IMHO. Used to just love the old Aer Araan flights

I am all for Emerald Airlines. Recently I had a medical emergency, and flew from Dublin to Glasgow. I cannot fault the Cabin Crew, they were amazing, and caring. As you mentioned, I was lucky to have amazing weather, you could see so much! Full points to Emerald Airlines ( Aer Lingus), I will never forget your kindness to me.

Wow it’s still Christmas in Dublin 🎄

Thanks for another great video Scott. We flew with Virgin recently and they made a very big deal about filming before we took off - it was right up there with smoking in the toilet. It seems to be the latest thing for airlines to get ar5ey about. I agree with you about Dublin's arrangement with US Immigration - we live in Ireland (up north) and it's an excellent facility as you land in the US as though you're on an internal flight - straight to baggage and out the door!

Thanks for this Scott. With Flybe going out of business my regular trips to Belfast will be moving to Emerald Airlines taking over the BHD to Newcastle route. Love the ATR-72 and 2-2 seating on these turboprops. Excited to try them out!

Thanks for the great content as always Scott. Always an interesting watch!

Thanks scott enjoyed happy travels look forward next one

Super little video. Its really nice to see the unknown airlines getting some votes. I live here in Ireland and to be honest, I personally have never heard of the airline until now. So thank you Scott for bring this one to light. Stay safe and enjoy.

Another great video seen those planes alot and always wondered

Thanks so much, love sharing your experiences.

A great video and i really enjoyed the flight you filmed between Glasgow and Dublin.

Found you channel couple of weeks back and watched a few of your older videos, all nicely videoed and presented.

Flew this plane from Dublin to Edinburgh a fortnight ago as the morning Ryanair flight was just a little too early for me, was a pleasure.

Evening Scott, Emerald Airlines were well known to us here in the IOM🇮🇲at one time, unfortunately they don’t have any routes from here anymore.👍🇮🇲😔

Amazing photography on the landing. Well done!

We flew to NY last year and chose the connection via Dublin with Aer Lingus (Shamrock) from Leeds. ATR is a great aircraft and we did have clear skies so plenty to see. Far less stressful than a trip over the Pennines to Manchester, but clearing US customs in Dublin made it so much easier on arrival. Very well orgainsed, took about an hour from disembarking the connecting flight to having a Guinness in the bar, and the US officers were far friendlier than you get in the US. After a 6.5 hour transatlantic who wants to spend hours in a US clearance queue and be dealt with by a miserable individual! We walked off the flight at Newark, no checks whatsoever, bags collected (also quick as it was an A321 Neo from Dublin, so not too many passengers) and were in our hotel transfer taxi within 30 minutes. It was also a bonus to pick up a business class fare for the return for £300. Connection back from Dublin also seemless, about an hour to wait. Only downside is all connections to UK leave within about an hour, about 8 flights and only one small area to wait.

enjoying the channel. happy trails, amigo

Thanks Scott. Hugely enjoyable as always. We are now just that little bit wiser.

Great trip report Scott

Great watch as always 🎉

Love watching your videos. There’s something quite addictive about it

My first flight was in 1968 from Heathrow to Johannesburg on a 707 from SAA. It took 14 hours as SAA was not allowed to fly over Africa.

Nice plane I love prop planes. That was nice. Thank you Scott.

Hello Scott always look forward to your adventures 👍👍👍👍

Yet another brilliant Vlog Scott I continue to enjoy watching your content keep up the good work

Thanks for that Scott, good to know 😁😁

The journey continues.....

The Titanic is drier than Glasgow! I was born there and lived 70 miles South for 18 years, so should know. My elderly cousin lived just West of the city for over six decades and used to break down on the phone to me about it, which unnerved me, who lived near famously damp Manchester for decades!!

That announcement is standard on all Aer Lingus flights I've been on

Nice one Scott 👍👍

I’ve flown on easyJet Belfast to Glasgow on a clear day and you do get a fantastic view of the Scottish Coastline .

I flew on that in the summer, out on Aer Lingus (Emerald) and back on Ryanair, was like night and day !

I saw what you did in the description box. haha 😄

Emerald have recently announced taking over the route from my local airport, East Midlands airport to Belfast too.

Great video, I was at GLA last week - it was a shame to see how quiet it is nowadays!

Love the Skaughtisch’ aksent.

Brilliant Video! Last time I flew Aer Lingus Regional was in October of 2018, And the aircraft had the registration of EI-FAT!

Good watch Lee 😎

Great video Scott where next I wonder

Emerald do a Newcastle -Dublin route too (as do Ryanair)... They fly over my house in the Tyne valley. They seem a nice outfit!

There was a Emerald Airways back in the 1980s to 2006 based in Blackpool.

Just off one from DUB-EDI and that announcement was played too. No free tea or coffee for us though 😉

no need to be paranoid, all aer lingus flights make the announcements prohibiting the filmimg if staff and crew. great video as always

You are such a nice wee man

I was 5 hours late leaving Emerald. Diff plane. Technicals. Got there. Got a 250 euro late fly claim. No hardship. One of them. Small planes. Half original plane passengers flew Belfast. Other half Dublin and then coach. Quite the carry on. Airlines itself no issues. Oh yes free yea coffee bonus. Same here.

Those airside buses are massive and made by the same body builder thats builds the National express Coaches .Caetano

The no photography announcement is standard, even on mainline EI flights. However, on two occasions I have been "permitted" to film me and outside the window. Aer Lingus regional are big operators out of my local airport, Belfast City, and it's good to know they serve much needed connections between the ROI and UK as well as within the UK.

Like Scott 👍👍

Mate.. Love your videos.. but come on , with all your flying , you must know the difference between a Boeing 767 and the smaller B737.. Anyway , don't take that to heart.. Enjoyed the video mate..

I think the bumpy ride is an interesting thought for your Ryanair/Emerald comparison. As interesting as ATRs are my experience that in weather an aircraft like a 737 is a better ride. Again I know that for enthusiasts ATRs are more fun, but for the general paying Self Loading Freight?

Flew Dublin Leeds Bradford last week. Bumpy trip to Leeds but fine on the return home. Where do they stow all the luggage, is it between the cockpit and the passenger's or is there a small under floor hold

Was this trip before Christmas or just after as I saw Christmas trees in the airport! THANK YOU for the videos

I have a question when your on the plane can you really feel it moving and stuff or is it like a regular plane

You should try the Dublin to Cherbourg ferry, it's brilliant.

Next time your in Perth, check out the home of the Black Watch at Balhousie Castle and tell them a member of the Regement in Montreal sent you and if you need a cheap place to stay in London, I have just the place, the VSC

Love your Irish trips ☘️

Hey mate, great channel.. with an accent like yours, just wondering how Syd-Sin was your first flight, how did you get to Sydney 😂.. I have a full on Irish accent and my first flight was SYD-Dub via lots of stops..

Only ever flew with Aer Lingus back to Eire , never been enywhere with Ryanair , suppose mainly because lives in South East Asia 35 years

Good video thanks.....what would Ryanair stripe you for a tea or coffee ?

I always fly Aer Lingus Gatwick to Dublin and back. The flights are generally more punctual as AL just shuttle back and forth whereas I had a RyanAir from Dublin that was delayed because of snow in Szczezin, the legroom is more, the flight is a lot more relaxing (they are not trying to sell you lottery tickets and so on), T2 in Dublin is much quieter, and the cost difference with 10kg checked in on AL is not that much.

I flew with them Dublin to Exeter 2 months ago and I thought they were very good. And the flight was reasonably priced too, and not much more than Ryanair tbh

Hi Scott I think your travels are excellent would you recommend Budapest? Thanks Elliot

I wonder how people requesting assistance to get on board the plane makes it on the DashQ 400?

Your comment about onward connection from Dublin could be true but I would think that mainly happens on morning GLA DUB services. Your evening/night flight would not have onward same day US bound flights.

Nice coffee

You were flying on atr72

I used Singapore airlines recently. Great airline. Using them again to kuala lumpur in may. Nice video as always, scott 👍

Free tea and coffee are already better than Ryanair!

I hope you don't mind me asking but do you need to see a GP about possiblly having rosacea on your nose treated?

what is the relationship between Air-Lingus and Emerald Airlines? is it similar to American Eagle and American? Virgin & Virgin Express? or is it sort of like Manx-air, purely an operator of other airline stock?

VSC is Victory Services Club.

Scott are you from Glasgow?

just getting anything complimentary, even tea or coffee is worth having over Ryanair that charge you for everything.

Can you do Belfast to Cardiff

Why do I fly Turkish business and not Ryan air Dublin to Istanbul. No contest.... Two free nights in Istanbul on the way home to Cape Town. The hotel 5 star centeral Istanbul plus breakfast.

do you need a passport to fly from glasgow to dublin as its u.k??

The same aircraft type that crashed in Nepal.

Just being curious..what are the Passport Control like st Dublin due to Brexit.?

Update. Good experience bad. My flight 5 hours late cancelled after prop engine failure. Awarded 250euro Dec. Still playing funny beggars after sending them payment numbers and scanned by their form over 5 times. They’re a pain. They don’t want to pay. It’s March to May and have stopped replying.

That’s IMPOSSIBLE to get stonier air livery

Look up pilot reviews of ATRs. I'd rather walk.

Did you need your passport for this flight? Dublin and Glasgow are within the CTA but some airlines require passports especially Ryanair.

Does anyone like Ryanair 👀

Mickey mouse airline with mucjey mouse aircraft

Your first flight was between Sydney and Singapore. How the fuck did you get to Australia???

Even this positive little feature and the excellence of Emerald could not conceal just what a lousy airport DUB is. Its poor planning and lack of moving walkways makes it a nightmare for anyone with even light mobility problems and it is insensitive to families with small children. The CEO recently quit before he was forced out. Conditions and pay for staff do not help to make for good public interaction because morale is generally low. Also it is several miles from the city centre and transport links. Even discounting Covid, tourism from N.America comes in through Shannon or Belfast International.

I would rather walk with a suitcase in each hand than fly with Ryanair.

I’d rather swim to Belfast than get on an ATR72 again. Horrid aircraft

Fly Ryan Air? No thanks, I would rather walk (and if anything goes wrong to cancel their flight you probably will be...). I won't pay that obnoxious little man Mr O'Leary a penny of mine to be treated like cattle. I would pay the extra and fly Emerald.
