100 FREE FLIGHTS from Shannon Airport are up for grabs as part of a new month-long campaign in what is its biggest-ever giveaway.
Marketing itself as the ‘the best place to fly from’, Shannon Airport has launched a huge giveaway where fifty people will each win a pair of flights departing from Shannon.
Passengers are invited to dream big and build their holiday wishlist while trying to win free flights.
As part of the new brand campaign, animated birds and ‘frequent fliers’, Robin and Wren feature to celebrate Shannon Airport’s famously friendly and hassle-free experience. The campaign builds on Shannon Airport’s established reputation as Ireland’s Favourite Airport, earned through its award‑winning customer experience and status as Ireland’s top airport brand for a third consecutive year.
Television and radio presenter, Kathryn Thomas has partnered with Shannon Airport as a brand ambassador for the campaign. She presented the travel programme, No Frontiers on RTÉ for twelve years until 2010 and in 2005 was named the Travel Extra Irish Travel Writer of the Year.

Running for four weeks, the giveaway includes flights to Paris, Rome, Frankfurt, Faro, Lanzarote, Palma, New York, Boston and Chicago. In week four, all entries will roll into a Grand Prize draw, giving lucky winners the chance to fly to Nashville, Orlando, Las Vegas and San Francisco.
Emily Brown, Brand Manager at Shannon Airport explained that it is the biggest giveaway ever done by the airport. “We wanted to celebrate the brilliant reaction to our new brand ad and our feathered frequent fliers with something genuinely exciting for passengers nationwide. What better way to do that than by launching our biggest ever giveaway of flights? With 40 routes available from Shannon this year, plus exciting onward connections, this really could be a once‑in‑a‑lifetime win for 50 lucky winners”.

Kathryn said of her involvement, “Everyone knows I love to travel and I love airports so I’m absolutely delighted to be part of a competition that’s giving away 100 free flights from a hassle‑free, award‑winning airport. This is such a fun way for people to explore the range of routes on offer from Shannon, whether that’s a city break, some sunshine or a dream US destination. Creating your own holiday wishlist and then possibly heading off for free? That’s pretty hard to beat”.
