Report into serious air incident
Crash narrowly avoided after pilot mistook hotel for runway | Irish Examiner
"The lights on the top of the hotel were changed from fixed red lights to flashing red in October 2007 after an initial report into the incident said they lighting could be mistaken for approach lights."
It seemed to be operated by FlightLine for Aviajet.

B/300 ones, most likely 303 or 306.
That should be interesting. An extra 300 passengers and their cabin baggage crammed into what is a quite small Gate area that doesn't have enough seats per gate even for short haul. Or will they be shunted downstairs to where the old pre-Clearance was?

Given it's EY you can be sure they have discussed such issues and they will want the same level of service that was offered in T2
So are they taking their recently constructed business class lounge with them from T2 to T1??

Great to see the new MIA route and increase on other t/a routes!
Apart from Oporto and Split, any ideas on any routes dropped/frequencies increased on the European network?

Irish Times reporting traffic in October up 9% over the previous October. Transatlantic traffic up 26% to more than 291,000. I read that as travellers to the US from Europe discovering the joys of pre-clearance in Dublin.

Not fully, it's usually after Christmas before they are complete, you usually see extra flights etc added based on routes performing well once January bookings come in.

ET are also apparently considering applying for permission to stop on a second route.
