Wonder would EI ever DUB - Cleveland daily? There’s a video on YouTube and Aer lingus we’re going through USA routes and DUB CLE is one the most profitable routes.

Re: Irish 1/24: Ring out the old, ring in the new

Does anyone know if Aer Lingus are planning to run a 320 on the early EDI over the summer? I recall it being up-gauged last year to enable them to meet the demand for golf clubs that the ATR couldn't handle.

Re: British Airways News and Discussion - 2024

Where as the 787-10 can fly the routes mentioned above, BA would have to fit theirs with crew rest facilities to make it legal for the cabin crew…The current fleet of -10s doesn’t have crew rest and limits where BA can fly them…

This route is a 787 in northern hemisphere summer and a 777-300 in winter. I’ve operated it as cabin crew a few times…it’s a 9 day trip…crew either love it or hate it!

Re: Irish 8/23: Sorry! Summer is unavailable in your country

I just had a look at the SNN charts…and indeed a 185 knot speed limit at various points seems a little odd…Is there a specific reason for them? Guess not if they are frequently able to do a non standard departure
