Delta have released latest European changes and have pulled A333 ops over winter and will return a B764 to JFK (except for 18 Dec-9 Jan) and they will drop one weekly flight beginning 11 Jan-8 Mar. Guess a + is a few extra J seats than the A333.

EI to JFK (up slightly during period) and of course EI/UA big capacity increase to EWR.

T1 Departure Hall to get a bit of an upgrade similar to what's happening in arrivals.

Area 14 has been reopened until December while check in area's 6-8 are closed for works.

Area 14 would of been closed before T2 opened if not slightly earlier given a big drop in traffic and it was no longer needed.

KLM which commence 2 daily AMS next month will increase to 4 daily from 26 March.

Will take all 3 operators to x4 daily however EI return up to x5 daily next month which may continue into summer 17.

Ryanair and Aer Lingus. If it took KLM this amount of time to face the battle, imagine Berlin or Lisbon, which aren't exactly the most lucrative hubs!

I can't see a great reason for AB coming into DUB, when their mainly US-focused hub is in the already well-serviced DUS and it offers no discernible advantage over travelling with EI. Besides which, with AB already being a member of Oneworld, and EI seeking to rejoin it, there's no real need for the two to compete. As for Berlin itself, there'd be precious little point in chasing the same market as FR, as EI would be the only carrier to offer meaningful connections on one of two ends.

Lisbon is one of the more genuinely interesting hubs, and now that TAP are pensioning off F100's in favour of E190's, there may be room for them in DUB. The route would have a scaled down dynamics of the DUB - AMS route, insofar as FR would concern itself with O&D, EI would concern itself with connecting people between Europe and N. America, and TP would well-placed to concern itself with connecting the Irish to S. America and some points in Africa.

AB would be a waste of time, once EI are part of OW the dots will be joined, AB could never match the 2 daily DUS/TXL service that EI offer.

We have had TAP at DUB before, would be surprised if they returned.

AMS changes is an interesting one and I can't see either 3 backing down at all.

TAP operated the L1011 on a DUB FAO LIS routing at weekends for many years.

I believe they also operated a DUB MAN LIS using a 727.

I don't remember the Tristar but they also operated an A340 at weekends. This one from Summer 2000.

According to The Irish Times, the Government is considering a third terminal at DUB.

Government considering third terminal at Dublin Airport

That should help ease the congestion with ground movements no end.

In other news ... the Shannon Lobby ... they haven't gone away you know ...

A second runway at Shannon could ease the pressure in Dublin.

Does McNamara know where Dublin and Shannon are relative to each other?

Was more of a use Shannon's existing runway instead of RWY2 in Dublin, which of course isn't even a plausible or discussable suggestion.

I'm not sure there is any such thing as an ex-politician in Ireland. Hence the suggestion. Shannon is a huge political football in Clare.

Anything to get elected

Delta to BOS

Dublin Airport welcomes the announcement today by Delta Air Lines that it is to expand its route network from Dublin by launching a new service to Boston next year.

This new service, which will operate daily from May until October, will complement Delta’s existing routes from Dublin to New York-JFK and Atlanta.

Dublin Airport Managing Director Vincent Harrison said he was delighted to welcome the new Delta service. “We’re thrilled that Delta is launching a third transatlantic service from Dublin Airport. This new daily service to Boston will offer additional choice and convenience for passengers on both sides of the Atlantic and the added connectivity it will bring will further boost the already strong tourism and trade links between the US and Ireland.”

“We are excited to be launching additional flights from Dublin and we will be offering almost 13,000 weekly seats between Ireland and the United Sates for the summer 2017 season,” said Dwight James, Delta’s senior vice president transatlantic. “Dublin is the fastest growing EU city in terms of US visitor numbers since 2011, with an increase of 9% year-over-year, and Delta’s new flight will help support this continued growth, benefiting the local economy.”
