"We are pleased to announce that a new item has appeared in our route network-a unique Dublin!

"Direct flights will be carried out as part of the winter schedule daily from 28 October 2018, tickets are already available on our website."

Dublin Airport hopes the new route will boost tourism between the two countries.

Dublin Airport Managing Director, Vincent Harrison, said:

We are delighted to welcome Aeroflot back to Dublin Airport with this direct connection to Moscow. The new service will further boost trade and tourism between Ireland and Russia.
