Taoiseach Micheál Martin was punching his weight in the White House in raising Ireland’s plane prowess… and here ain’t it green for go for Paddy Day deals?
The Micheál, over in Washington DC for the annual presentation of the shamrock, and The Donald did bants across court.
With the President talking up Irish UFC champ Conor McGregor and his tatts.
And inviting Micheál to cite his Irish boxing dad and arranging a reunion at his own golf resort at Doonbeg. Co. Clare.
Ireland’s greatest exports
The Taoiseach was, of course, over in the US to promote Ireland and he was quick to promote its aviation industry.
With Ryanair and AerCap taking Seattle Boeings.
As a proud son of the Great Diaspora I gladly endorse that Ireland’s greatest export is, of course, its people.
And St Paddy’s Day and its promotions get bigger every year.
Ireland’s low-budget airline Ryanair is offering 20% or more on select hotels.
Book by 21 March for travel until 8 September.
The US of Aer
And if it’s North America you want then the national airline carrier is offering travel to its destinations.
Including its newest destinations, Nashville, beginning on 12 April and Indianapolis from May 3.
The Aer Lingus St Patrick’s Day Sale comes in at €249 each way as part of a return trip.
With the offer running to March 21 for travel during May, June, and September.
