DOES IRELAND HAVE THE BEST SHORT-HAUL BUSINESS CLASS SEAT IN THE WORLD | Aer Lingus Cabin Comparison

- What better way to celebrate St Patrick’s day with TPG UK's latest cabin comparison on board Ireland’s flag carrier, Aer Lingus.
Alongside the usual short-haul products, Aer Lingus regularly flies an Airbus A321neo with an incredibly comfortable lie-flat seat that can be seen on routes to the US. They also fly a widebody Airbus A330-300. With a flight time of as little as 45 minutes, It’s rare to find such a large aircraft on such a short route, so we put this A330 experience to the test.
Nicky drew the short straw with a ticket for the economy cabin, whilst Liam bought an “AerSpace” business-class ticket, allowing him to turn left and enjoy a business class experience.

I’m from Ireland and I’ve been waiting so long for someone to fly our airline! Love the content. Could you please try long haul Aer Lingus any route potentially Dublin-JFK?
Agreed!
I mean we also have ryanair but we dont talk about that
Second this! Dublin - NJ would be awesome guys!
I’m always so excited to see an episode on the VARIOUS CLASSES of Aircrafts.
Same :)
Are you bullying us for only having Buisness and Economy?
Happy St Patrick’s day everyone! ☘️☘️☘️☘️ 🟩⬜️🟧. Great video TPGUK! Keep up the good work!
Happy St patricks to you to!
@@LunaWolf55 thanks!
Happy st patrick's day,,, Everyone!!!
This style of A330s in the older paint is the best
Flew from Dublin to London on Aer Lingus economy. Very comfy seat and good entertainment screen with decent selection of shows and movies. Would definitely fly Aer Lingus again
I’m from Ireland so glad I loved it it’s a really nice airline normally the crew are really friendly
Fab to see Liam back in a premium cabin again. Fab to get 2 amazing videos in a week and Aer Lingus looks fantastic in business especially on a short haul flight like this. Keep up the great work and happy St Patrick's day all
Liam OMG you better not go back to Ireland after drinking Guinness from the can 😱
Keep up the great videos
Safe travels
Definitely a nice looking business class on the a330 and a321lr. Just a shame that Aer Lingus does not have same product across all of the aircraft, sells aerspace on Heathrow to cork and Shannon routes which is just a normal economy seat with the middle seat blocked out
It's a standard Euro business class.
Very nice to see Aer Lingus covered on these channels. Happy St Patrick's Day everyone from Ireland ☘️☘️☘️
I have been waiting for this for sooooo long!!!!☘
Wow thanks for this video! Plan to travel from the US to Dublin this summer and hv been looking for flight options, now considering Aerlingus. This is so helpful 👍🏻
Loving all your contents..Really fantastic... Keep entertaining us.. Actaully i was about to suggest you to try Aer Lingus but to my surprise you uploaded the same ..
Glad to see you fellas back at it!
Awesome video! Keep doing it!!👌
Thanks for sharing. Great cabin features. I’m impressed!
I can’t tell whether you guys look so familiar because I watch your videos prior to trying new airlines (to me) or if you guys are actors I’ve seen on tv. Thanks for being so thorough and helping me plan better. Cheers 🥂
Been waiting so long for you to use Aer Lingus 💚 thanks from NI 🇬🇧 🇮🇪

Nice, breezy review. Enjoy your daily emails too.
The seat? Very Thunderbird One.
Great video boys! Loves it!
Cheers 🍻 Mates! Lucky 🍀 boys! Never flown AER LINGUS they’re definitely on my bucket list now! 😂🎉
Also on your Sony ECM Lav microphones do you use the Transmitter, receiver or mix mode? Also I don’t think you’d even need the Transmitter clip on your shirt if you’re so close to the camera and in front of the mic. 🎙️ 😮
we see Nicky's Full name
I imagine the Dublin London route is one of the few offering (some, perhaps not all) flights with a large aircraft. I fly to the continent and it it is the smaller A320 single aisle and it has no business class. It has different ticket prices depending on the degree of flexibility in changing or cancelling your ticket and whether you check baggage or not.
I took the A321 in business from Paris to Dublin and had the same seat. However, it’s important to note that not all business class customers will get lounge or fast track with Aer Lingus Aer space. At CDG you get neither. Only priority boarding. Additionally when flying in the Aer Space cabin, you still have to purchase your own drinks and food.
Aer Space tickets should get you a complimentary item from the buy on board menu. Not sure if it includes alcohol but everything else is definitely complimentary. The only time it’s not is when the business cabin has been sold as economy and passengers have upgraded their seat e.g on the Malaga route.
Plan to travel to Ireland soon, this looks good!
Aer Lingus is a great airline!! Super transatlantic also
I remember my family flew Aer Lingus to Malaga once and I was pleasantly surprised to find out we had IFE systems for a short haul flight. I'd only ever flown on Ryanair before so the idea of a long haul aircraft on a short haul route confused me
Ryanair is cruel.
Ha the exact same for me
Yeah Aer Lingus use some of their A330s on the Malaga route during the summer season when there is huge demand. The A330s have IFE systems whereas the A320s don't
we’re yous on the older plane model?? i fly frequently between dublin and manchester which is an extremely short flight and the economy seats are completely different & feel like mini sofa’s, also love your videos keep up the good work ☺️🇮🇪
Interesting vlog🤩
Awesome opening and great music. Thanks guys for this special St. Patrick's Day trip tour. Stay safe.
You should try go get on one of the Airbus A321 long range aircraft! Would be interesting to see what you think about that since it’s a pretty new aircraft
are you going to upload your inaugural flight of etihad's a350-1000 from AUH-CDG?
The Points Guys are back 🔥
This is a good review of Aer Lingus in Dublin but what about Aer Lingus facilities elsewhere in the world? I’m flying Aer Lingus (business) from Manchester to Orlando in Oct 2022 and I’m curious about lounge access, courtesy car pick-up, baggage drop-off etc. The flight is actually a British Airways flight (BA0035) but it’s been contracted out to Aer Lingus. Should I be thinking ‘Lucky Me’ or ‘Poor Me’?
damn didnt know they posted on my bday
Hi! I just wondering if you can do about thai airlines classes? I have looking all your you tube films & I like it very much, looking many times.
Im from Cork ireland can u do a short haul flight next from cork
Aer Lingus economy has some of the best leg room in the skies!
Should do a vid where they are all in first class!
personally i fly business the majority of the time with my dad/ especially to malaga i’ve been on long flights with aerlingus on a330 and it’s feels like the service when going to america, i like the 21 neo but personally i prefer the a330
He said it’s a bit gloomy today but in Ireland it rains like every day 24/7
Would love to see an Air Canada review
Can you review TUIfly Economy vs First vs Business?
I'm from Dublin and I'm so so happy that if we are airline because we got the best of the best airline in Dublin so I hope that you liked it because because I got a question for you did you fly well we already I already know your friend but you should try Long haul Aer lingus
Even though my experiences with Aer Lingus haven’t been great. Dublins airport is by far one of the best in Europe
Sounds good
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
How do you guys decide who gets to sit in which class?
Did anyone notice that the air lingus business class seat is kind of like jetblue throne seat?
Was wondering when you guys are going to do this video. Appropriate way to celebrate St Patrick’s day ☘️ 🇮🇪 No call bell challenge? 😁
Anyone know what kind of camera Liam was using, the one with the flip-out screen?
Please do Airfrance or west jet!
lol u both r funny
Flight that short that gets in at that time, likely repositioning that plane for another flight in the morning, and it’s better to sell a few seats than fly empty.
Think the best short haul goes to jet blue, gotta be honest the mint studio is out of this world 🔥
can you do a royal jordainan review.
What was the price difference between business and economy class?
How does the lounge work, is all the drinks and food free? Eta- or rather included in ticket price?
You get lounge access either with a business class ticket, a lounge pass like Priority or by paying. Once you are in you eat and drink what you want. It is the way with most airport lounges. In bigger airports you have different lounges for different airline groups and often called after the home airline. In Madrid the Iberia lounge is great with showers.
Why in this video doesn't have the call challenge like the others?
Liam! 😍
What was the price difference between business and economy on such a short flight? I flew to the US with Aer Lingus recently and the price for economy was around 600 while the business class was over 2000. I almost couldn't believe the price difference.
Can you do a Air Canada all class review.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day ☘️ to you all. Ciao. 2022.
It's a 70 minutes flight, they could serve a meal in business class, like BA that manages to serve one even between London and Paris (50 minutes).
I just flew Aer Lingus for the first time last weekend. You failed to mention that if you fly Business Class. You have a shorter security line. I was very impressed with Aer Lingus’s planes, flight crew and airport/ticketing crew. I was not impressed with their UK phone customer service. I lost my reservation to a throne seat and he even changed my ticket from Business Class to Economy. I asked to be put in an earlier flight into Dublin for a longer layover.. He didn’t do that either. I couldn’t print out my boarding pass for the flight reservation that he messed so I had to work with a very nice Aer Lingus person who fixed it. After she fixed my class of ticket, I was saw that my seat was no longer a throne seat. Keep in mind, every aspect of Aer Lingus was great except for the one guy who messed up my reservation. I would definitely fly them again. I would just be VERY CAREFUL if I had to change my reservation.
No call bell test?
So many uploads
was this filmed on the 17th of march ?
I'm surprised that Liam got business class. Nicky you should have played the boss card and kicked him out.
If only more European carriers had proper business class seats and not try to fake it with bog standard economy seats.
It's one of the reasons I like Turkish Airlines for short haul, at least they have a decent seat and food (once they get back to pre-covid service levels).
True but the problem is most European flights use small narrow body aircraft like a321's that just don't have the space for nice business class. European carriers that fly overseas have great business classes however
I guess the European flights tend to be short haul. You really don't need all of this for a 45 minute flight!
I miss you guys, Where is Jean, He so cutie. 😜 I'm a big fan from Thailand. 🇹🇭
