Kerry Airport has announced that French Airline Chalair is to launch two new summer routes to Quimper and Brest in Brittany.
These routes will commence on July 1st and will operate every Saturday during the summer season.

CEO of Kerry Airport Ireland, John Mulhern says they are delighted to welcome Chalair to Kerry, adding these new routes from Kerry will be the airline’s first in Ireland.
Mr Mulhern says it’ll give people the opportunity to explore a beautiful region of France, while the French people will now have new routes into Ireland to enjoy all that Kerry and the region has to offer.

These new destinations from Kerry to Brittany will bring to nine the number of routes that will be available to passengers for the summer months.
