Aer Lingus announced its largest-ever winter schedule with 138,000 extra seats from the United Kingdom to Ireland.

The new services and capacity offer increased trans-Atlantic options and convenient connections via Dublin (DUB). The airline will add 350 trans-Atlantic flights for winter 2017 and a 13 percent increase in capacity from last year.

The airline recently launched a long-haul, three-times-weekly Miami (MIA) service, and there will be 12 new flights per week to the West Coast, including Los Angeles (LAX) and San Francisco (SFO).

“This Winter is our biggest yet with considerable expansion of our long-haul and European networks. The increasing recognition that the Aer Lingus Dublin Hub is the fastest, cheapest and least hassle way to visit North America is underpinned by a further 13% increase in transatlantic seats from Dublin this winter,” said Mike Rutter, chief operating officer, Aer Lingus.

The airline’s U.K. short-haul network will also expand over the coming months. Key routes are the Birmingham (BHX)–Dublin service with 50,000 additional seats and the London (LHR)–Dublin service with 56,000 additional seats.

The European network will see increased capacity to key cities including Hamburg (HAM) and Zurich (ZRH), and the Canary Islands (TFS, LPA, ACE, FUE) and popular destinations in France will also enjoy greater frequency.
