We began operating from Belfast City Airport less than two years ago and now to fly our one millionth passenger in such a short time frame is an achievement we are extremely proud of. We would like to thank our customers, our partners at Belfast City Airport, along with our great team at Emerald Airlines, who have all made this milestone possible.

Since the commencement of our operations from Belfast City Airport, we have successfully developed the leading network connecting Northern Ireland and Great Britain. The success of our investment in the region is evident in the creation of 150 jobs and investing over £300 million to the local economy.”
