Thus Pokorny:

<< Old Irish aire (*arios) and airech 'nobleman, of noble people,
suitor' can belong to preposition air- 'in front of', thus 'standing
in the first place' (Thurneysen ZCP. 20, 354). >>
Cf. R. Matasovic's etymological lexicon of Proto-Celtic:

<< Proto-Celtic: *fare 'in front of' [Preposition]
Old Irish: air, ar [aspirating, +Acc, +Dat.]
Middle Welsh: ar-, er-
Middle Breton: er-, ar
Gaulish: Are-morici [Ethnonym]
Celtiberian: are-korata (A 52)
Proto-Indo-European : *prH(i) 'in front of' >>
