They're closing the road in front of T1 for three months...

Latest News > Dublin Airport T1 Departures Road To Close For Essential Repairs

Seems an incredible amount of time just to rebuild a road.

As the road runs over the arrivals hall I expect it needs a lot more work than just throwing down tar on the road.

daa have been talking to travel extra

https://travelextra.wordpress.com/20...ement-sept-27/

Worldwide Routes is a good time to call the prospects of new routes for the next summer. daa are optimistic about their negotiations with a number of carrier to short haul destinations, while the perennial Delhi and Beijing options are still in play.

Dublin had 28 new routes and six new airlines in 2015, they expect similar number of new routes and three or four new airlines in 2016. Importantly, neither Ryanair nor Aer Lingus chose Routes to do their airport negotiations.
Will be doing well if they land 4 new carriers next year.

Finally a rail link to the airport will be announced lather today as part of 27 billion CIP between 2016-2021, growing speculation it will be a new metro line or a revised plan of the previously proposed route.

Given last week the Goverment were forced to announce that DART underground has been delayed until a revised and costs effective plan is in place. If they decide to extend the current tram line under construction it will be deeply un popular and not benefit Swords in terms of time taken to city and could easily result in a clear out of seats early next year come election time.

DU been delayed should guarantee a metro line.

I'll believe it when construction actually starts. Until then I'm not holding my breath.

i tend to agree, but it is making some progress. Would expect one final announcement before it has a chance of happening

How do you find out this sort of info ? Thanks .
Received a link to a press statement.

EI already fly to MRS and PGF. MPL is only 169km from MRS and 157 from PGF.
FR also fly to CCF which is only 154 km to PGF. FR also fly to GRO which is only 98km to PGF.


FR are much cheaper than EI so how will FR be hit??

Sober

I exprct he means in yield terms, look st LPL EI moving in has resulted in a 50% drop in starting fares compared to now when EI have not started. They also had to dump capacity when they planned to cut.

FR also dropped MRS this year and EI increased freq!

As for cheap off season yes but in summer they price the same as EI.

2 strange things here, EI using Cork and EI crew been able to return to DUB without going out of hours.

Have the daa offered them something to use Cork as a diversion airport where possible? Very strange for them to go to Cork!

Aer Lingus' preferred alternative (BFSL had a low visibility of 3000m at the same so I'd imagine that's why Cork was selected. EI propably has no ground staff on at Shannon.
