Aer Lingus, the national airline of Ireland, based in Dublin, started operations in 1936 with a 6 seater biplane flying from Dublin to Bristol.

Apart from the war years, the airline saw steady expansion under the ownership of the Irish government, mostly with flights to the UK and the United States.

The events of 9/11 had a serious effect on Aer Lingus, resulting in a cutt back of staff and planes.

The airline now has 35 planes, all Airbus A320 - 330 and concentrates more on European flights than it used to, competing with the low cost airlines.

Aer Lingus was floated on the stock market in late 2006, with the Irish goevernment retaining 28% at the time.

Ryanair promptly bought a stake in the airline but failed in it's attempts at a takeover.

Aer Lingus transported 8 million passengers in 2005
