  • Looking for a cheap flight from Cork to London Gatwick Airport? 25% of our users found flights on this route for £42 or less one-way and £55 or less round-trip.
  • The most popular flight route between these cities is a direct flight since the distance is so short. But direct flights are more costly. If you're travelling light, consider booking flights with Ryanair with multiple self-transfer stopovers, in Dublin and Nottingham East Midlands. You'll have to pay extra for a luggage allowance if you have checked luggage.
  • For travellers with an early morning flight from Gatwick Airport (LGW) to Cork, the on-site Premier Inn London Gatwick Airport North Terminal is an excellent choice to save time. It offers comfortable rooms, a restaurant and direct access to the North Terminal. Hilton London Gatwick Airport is another convenient option, providing stylish accommodations and a complimentary shuttle service to the terminals.
  • If you want to get to Cork as early as possible, check out the stopover flights operated by easyJet in conjunction with KLM. These flights have a single stopover at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) en route and typically arrive earlier than any other flight. Pegasus Airlines also offers direct flights with an early start and arrival time.
  • If you're using multiple airlines that include a low-cost airline to save money, like flights with easyJet and KLM, these flights usually have a self-transfer stopover or two. Ensure there is enough time at the stopover airport before your connecting flight to account for any delays. Missing a flight on self-transfer trips leaves you responsible for additional costs.
  • If you're trying to cut costs, consider taking the Gatwick Express train rather than catching a taxi to the airport. The express train leaves from London Victoria Station roughly every 15 minutes and takes around 30 minutes to get to the airport. It's faster than a taxi and usually a lot more affordable.

Delays resulting in missed connecting flight. Attendant failed to arrange special assistance as promised to get us on connecting flight. Robyn was the particular attendant.

Very good except for the boarding process which was more hectic than it should have been

Too hot. Asked for an extra glass of water and was ignored. Asked to sit in empty seats that were open because it was so hot and crowded and was denied and the seats were empty the entire flight

Terrible leg room - I’m 5’3” and my knees were touching the seat in front of me. When the person sitting in front of me leaned back, there was about 15 inches of space between my head and the TV screen which made it awkward to view movies. Last year they had decent food, but this year the only tasty item on the trip was dessert.

The flight was delayed leaving Philadelphia due to “catering” and consequently arrived in Dublin some 75 minutes later than scheduled. Consequently this caused me to miss my connecting flight to Glasgow and I had to spend the night in Dublin.

It was truly a horrible flight. We were delayed almost 2 hours. The seats were so tiny, my legs were hurting the entire flight. When i finally made it to Ireland i missed my connecting flight because we left Newark late. I will most likely never fly Aer Lingus again

Coming from the EU to the USA, Aer Lingus is a very good choice. You clear U.S. border control while still at the departure airport, so when you land in the States, you don’t need to go through the entry process again — very efficient and fast. In terms of comfort, Aer Lingus is better than the usual EU carriers like KLM, Lufthansa, or Air France, and also better than United. There’s more legroom, and the crew is helpful and kind. The food is average but slightly better than most airlines. Overall, the crew is definitely better than on American Airlines, though not quite at the level of Virgin.

Best travel day I've had in a long time. Everything went perfectly, no delays. 10 out of 10

Seat is business could have been a lot cleaner, but space was nice and seat was comfortable

Terrible. The test of an airline is how they deal with problems. There is very little to differentiate between airlines. Aer Lingus failed absolutely. They lost one of my bags even though we had more than a 2 hour connection in Dublin. Trying to get it back has been awful. In checking on line I can see that the bag is in Edinburgh and it was supposed to be delivered today. It wasn't. The number we have in the UK doesn't answer. I had to pay for an international call to speak to somebody. All the woman at the call centre could say was be patient wait. I can tell you when it will be delivered nor can I tell you who the courier is.

Flight was delayed by 1 hour 45 minutes. Aircraft was cramped, dirty and uncomfortable. Boarding staff more interested in charging you for oversize baggage than getting you on board. Overall not a pleasant experience.

They were extremely unprofessional and unhelpful at check in. They did not understand laws related to Spanish residents flying with family It was very discriminatory the way we were treated.

A delay of almost 3 hours. It was evident that the staff wanted us to board urgently, to the point of rudeness, to avoid paying compensation

It's not the staff's fault. The cabin crew do their best but the setup in Stansted Airport by Ryanair is poor. The herding of people like cattle is unacceptable before boarding and is something that's in every airport but only in Stansted have I seen the queueing of passengers outside the plane on the tarmac and the crew only turning up with maybe 5 minutes to depart. This is a resource issue . Yes prices are good but seemingly comes with a price of poor treatment of customers. I'll pay more next time

On time arrival but the aircraft had seen better days and needed a deep clean.

It was appalling, full of young people who were drunk and disobeying instructions to sit down. Crew did nothing to enforce. There was a Ryanair pilot sitting in the aisle opposite me who talked through out the safety briefing so loudly I couldn’t hear. Whole thing felt unsafe

Delayed for 2 hours lack of communication no refreshments as promised and the drinks on board were not as ordered and refused to refund

Flight was fine, crew were good, cabin director spoke far too much; disembarking at Dublin Airport and entry into the terminal building was just dreadful, like entering the back door of a neglected factory building. What an awful impression it must give to first time visitors to Ireland.

Straight forward checking as long as you have completed every single detail online, prior to checking day. Efficient boarding, seating is ok for a two hour flight. Fulfilledour travel requirements from Manchester to Marseille.

I couldn’t understand the aircraft tannoy announcements I was in seat 20C - nobody in our row could either. Speakers a bit too quiet plus messages read out too fast. Otherwise excellent flight. (Flight delayed by 50 mins)
