Flybe take Game of Thrones fans to the next level with Northern Ireland's Top 19 filming locations

To celebrate the much anticipated arrival of the final ever episode of Game of Thrones, Flybe has unveiled the top 19 most popular filming locations in Northern Ireland. Through the magic of Instagram and some very clever hashtag analysis, Flybe has fans itching to visit some of the series’ most iconic filming locations, such as The Iron Islands, Winterfell Castle and of course, Kingsroad!

Now live on Flybe’s official website the top locations were identified by analysing the number of hashtags at GoT filming locations across Northern Ireland. This data was then used to create the top 19 locations and thanks to Flybe’s interactive map, GoT super-fans can now visit the location of some of the show’s biggest highlights in person.

Flybe’s Danielle Agtani commented: “Game of Thrones has proved to be one of the biggest screen successes in memory, with HBO claiming that the opening of season 8 attracted an unbelievable 17.4 million viewers! Flybe have for a long time provided a cost effective and convenient way to visit the beautiful Northern Irish countryside, so we thought we’d celebrate the final episode of the last series by analysing Instagram hashtags to help the UK’s super-fans immerse themselves even more, by visiting scenes from the show’s biggest twists and turns.”
