YOU can now fly to Ireland's capital as a new route to Dublin has been added to Southampton Airport.
Carried out by British Airways' CityFlyer group, the route will begin this summer.
Last year the firm launched a new schedule from Southampton connecting England's south coast with popular holiday destinations in Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece and France.
Now, this latest route will run seasonally starting May 15 until October.
Flights, however, will only operate once a week.

Matt Hazelwood, Chief Commercial Officer AGS Airports Ltd, which owns and operates Southampton Airport said: “Last year was fantastic when we welcomed not only a host of new routes but a new airline to Southampton Airport.
“We were thrilled to see BA CityFlyer’s routes take to the skies and with the addition of Dublin we are sure it will prove extremely popular this summer.”
“BA’s commitment to deliver connectivity for Southampton and the wider region to some of the most popular destinations in Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece and France was very much welcomed by our passengers last year.”
