  "summary": "Aer Lingus is tracked across AI employer visibility rankings in the Airline sector. When candidates research the company through AI, it appears in a moderate share of employer-related queries — ranking #11 out of 34 Airline companies in the PerceptionX index.\n\nAI models most frequently position Aer Lingus alongside British Airways, EasyJet, and Virgin when discussing Airline employers.\n\nThe company shows strongest employer visibility in Company Culture and Inclusion. Visibility gaps exist in Application & Communication, Candidate Feedback and Career Opportunities, where competitors tend to dominate the AI narrative.\n\nAer Lingus's Visibility Score has risen from 4.2 to 5.1 across its last 4 measurements (since January 2026), climbing 2 places in the Airline rankings. Over that period it has moved ahead of Airbus and Emirates. Rolls-Royce and Heathrow Airport have moved ahead of it. It now trails Manchester Airports by 2.6 points.\n\nThis analysis is based on AI-generated responses from ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Perplexity. Data is refreshed regularly to reflect changes in AI employer perception.",

Responses from other assistants (e.g. Claude, DeepSeek) are collected for research but not included in index scoring.",
