Irish start-up Emerald secures air operator’s certificate
Ireland’s civil aviation regulator has granted an air operator’s certificate to start-up Emerald Airlines, the carrier set to take over as an Aer Lingus regional franchise partner. Emerald Airlines conducted an ATR 72-600 proving flight on 3 September – operating from Dublin to Cork – and the aircraft has since been transferred to Exeter. “We are now able to progress towards the launch of scheduled services, which will be rolled out progressively as our aircraft are delivered and market conditions allow,” says Emerald chief Conor McCarthy. “We will be working very closely with Aer Lingus on this now that we have our AOC in place.”<br/>
