Thanks for the feedback folks, il be booking it Asap!
Jump to postCurrently shopping a one-way ticket from Dublin to Brisbane.
I'm really surprised to see Air Canada provided a competitive fare routing DUB-YYZ-YVR-BNE for €780.
Just curious if anyone has transfer experience in Canada and if they have been punctual out of DUB lately?

Jump to postI have commenced my cheapskate express trip to Australia, First leg on EI154 DUB-LHR on the 321LR, pleasant experience however a few niggles include cloth seats starting to look tired, crumbs on some seats and my cheese and ham toasty was not entirely heated. Would not hesitate to use them on longer...

Interesting livery and no mention of BFS, still early days but perhaps other UK airports are being evaluated for their hub operation.
Information from SeanM1997 from Twitter; It is wholly owned by London-based Channel Airways Ltd., which, in turn, is owned by Pyne himself. "We will operate the A321neo(LR) in a 199-seat configuration. [Our fleet will consist of] six aircraft initially, building to a fleet of 20 over five years...

Aegean have cancelled my DUB-ATH flight next February, have they like Aer Lingus decided to operate seasonally? They did not email or call me, I just happened to be checking in on the flight status when I couldn't retrieve the booking, eventually found out the flight was cancelled at some point. The...
Jump to postFor those interested I noticed on Google maps that the A380 was snapped prior to its scrapping. Thought it would be worth sharing.

Some airlines load one way trips. I can or could mix and match Fr and EI but LH loaded one ways so lost business from me. From DUB to ATH I noticed LH and KLM undercutting FR for an additional stop. A3 beat them all, direct and cheaper than FR. Great indeed, and nice routing. But what about your re...
Jump to postI think €424 for a one-way (I’m assuming) is exceptional. Fares to AUS/NZ are high at the moment. Out of interest what was the best “conventional” fare you could find for your dates on something like DUB-XXX-YYY-PER? Were you tempted by the QF LHR-PER? Worth highlighting again that I have no checke...
Jump to postWell done people forget ATH as a hub for quite a few connections East but as you found there are some gems :) I was shocked to find Aegean were half the price of Ryanair so it was a no brainer! From the Scoot seat selection I could have chosen any seat so I hope they can fill the rest, perhaps a pa...
Jump to postHi everyone, Just thought I would share my booking experience. I am off to Australia next year and have just booked my outbound flights. Booking 1: Aegean DUB-ATH for 70 euro [Cabin bag, personal bag, seat assigned] I was very tempted to go business class for 150 euro. Booking 2: Scoot ATH-SIN-PER f...
Jump to postWas driving past DUB yesterday around 1300, I was certain I seen a LOT Polish airlines 787 landing combined with the medical airlift story reported by RTE, very heart warming.

EK Emirates have some craicing fares available.
I have booked DUB-DXB-JNB-WDH-JNB-DXB-DUB for a grand total of 616 euro.
Qatar were around 750 mark and eurowings 1k!

Jump to postShould be on the KIR-DUB sector on Sunday 26th September, so will report numbers. Anyone else heading to Killarney to see Bill Bailey?
Jump to postVery sad for Stobart air, hope their staff have a future with Emerald.
Did EI finish them off or did Stobart air follow Flybe and just collaspe with lack of interested buyers and funds?
Great news for BHD, does this show that FR cannot directly compete with U2 at BFS or is there more to it?

Talks are on the way.
Painful to see such a large number of staff and passengers left in the dust.
Hope other airlines can accommodate them all sooner than later.
Also, on the topic of the Aran Islands, is there any news on what will happen to the flights at the end of September? Thanks.

Stobart, Loganair realistically should be favourites to take over but could they on such short notice?
Regarding Irish domestic air services. I remember hearing rumours of a seaplane operater planning to link the cities. I am not sure what stopped them but with tourism flourishing it could be a winner. Would also be a nice option for business folk looking to city hop. Perhaps reality of the Irish cli...
Jump to postThanks everyone for your opinions and advice. I can only hope Air Canada/Rouge will respond with year round flights to YVR, or maybe should try summer skiing in Whistler... who needs snow anyway! :raincloud: I do wish Aer Lingus the best for Seattle, and also for AC up in Vancouver :thumbsup:
Jump to postI do wonder if the likes of Crystal or Topflight have plans to use Aer Lingus to access the local ski resorts.
