The idea that people would choose to fly EI because they Irish and need to go the US is not something I would put a $100 million aircraft into BHX on that hope. This idea doesn't work for BA. When you can hop on a flight to Dub and pre clear then what does direct give you if you lose 3 hours in clearing immigration.
