Oh the crocodile tears from people in this thread complaining that CO ‘dumped us’, when these same people flew long haul from Dublin.

The route was losing money in 2011 - so it’s unfair to say that United didn’t try and maintain the connectivity.

With Norwegian unsurprisingly failing to make it work, I can’t see anyone else taking up the route until perhaps EI get the 321LR, and a subsidy. A big subsidy. Oh and a cherry on top of that subsidy. Their Jet blue connectivity in JFK could help the viability.
