Aer Lingus

Thank you again for the information and hopefully it wasn't an easy decision. Ryanair outbound after 7pm from BHX will have 378 seats available against 95 and it is going to be interesting to see how this pans out. I think the pill would have been easier to take if EI3274/5 the AT76 had remained around 17.30 rather than ending last week.

The overall Aer Lingus increases which were expected next month when Cork goes 3 daily 4 times a week are now wiped out by this change.
