Don't want to burst anyone's bubble, but apparently the decisions for this year and next have already been made and neither BFS nor DUB is among them. Hamburg and Brussels are said to be at the top of the list, although they're not making any announcements yet.
Bloody annoying, particularly from a DUB perspective. We've been hoping EK would fly in, giving us our first direct link with the middle east and Asia, but to no avail. There was a rumour about DUB and about the new Dublin Airport Authority having talks with EK, but clearly they see opportunities elsewhere. However, with EI's t/a ambitions blocked, they will start looking East and EK - which has virtually had DUB at its own discretion for many years - will have lost the chance.
