      I just got that page too. Obviously some type of promo but they could have made a better job of it. It's so easy to identify the visitors location and target them with localised ads instead of offering flights originating in the US priced in US$ to everyone.

          At the very top of the web page...just to the left of 'contact us' there is a drop down menu that allows you to choose the country you want to book from....I think Aer Lingus just have the one .com address..

            It'd seem that way bf...................I wonder does any other national airline default to another country when customers log in

              I've been getting that American page for two years now.....very annoying
              The mind is everything. What you think you become.

                        Another point of view

                        Perish the thought if Ryanair got their hands on Aer Lingus. From what I have heard of Ryan, no one on this side of the Atlantic would tolerate his substandard service - if that's what you call it.

                              Maybe Southwest Airlines will buy out Ryanair instead...hehe. Always found it interesting how SW Air made flying cheap a good time. I've never ran into a rude employee flying SW yet, and so far no extra charges....checked bags still fly free.
                              I believe in.......
