Seems also Sundays return flight on EI - DVH was delayed for an hour at ACE then taxiing to the runway there was an issue in the cargo hold. They eventually took off but then had to divert to ORK to refuel eventually getting to DUB at 1930.

This mornings EI 776 was cancelled . Passengers were put on the EI 778 so must have been a light load so maybe thats the reason.

Re: Irish 5/23: The darling threads of May ...
In terms of routes I'd like to see EI expand beyond Canada or the States some day. I'm shocked at how they don't operate in and out of Nigeria and Brazil. Did the failure of Dubai years ago really scar them and turn them off ? I very much doubt the demand exists for Nigeria and despite a large ex p...

Re: Irish 4/23: Summer is a comin' in ...
EIK & EIL should be pulled from the NAT, use them for short haul trunk routes and the Canaries only. Thats actually not a bad idea . It would be an upgrade for the European routes and let the EI proper product be maintained TATL. When I flew on one of them when it was first introduced I knew th...

Re: Turkish Aviation April 2023
The chances of TK leaving the Star Alliance are unlikely, if they wanted to do that it would have happened a long time ago at this point. Agreed it would be a big mistake and they would quickly see that as Star membership does add quite a lot to their profile and brand perception. Lots of top tier ...

Re: Irish 4/23: Summer is a comin' in ...
I don't think there needs to be more political stability in Northern Ireland for TK to make BFS work. TK already operates in numerous markets with far less political stability than Northern Ireland - think Somalia, Sudan. I also don't think more US investment is needed, for a TK service. I'd take a...

Does Stormont need to function for such a flight? It hasn't stopped other flights launching, like LH's. Would have nothing whatever to do with Stormont, but you can't underestimate a.net 'effect'. It has everything to do with Stormont in a recent visit Biden and his entourage said that if the insti...

In my opinion EK has no business being allocated stands on Pier 4. T2 (as it currently stands) was initially designated for EI and all airlines using US preclearance - is that not correct? EK is the most globally significant airline in Dublin and should go wherever they want . The US airlines can u...

While it would be good to see A350's I would be surprised to see it. I doubt we will see 787's either as Aer Lingus is unlikely to switch back to Boeing. Back in 1998 when they did the big S/H aircraft deal it was suggested that Aer Lingus were only going through the motions with Boeing and that it ...
