Services from Ireland to the Caribbean

[MarkD]

hi all

Since the dreaded stopover is still killing US/Canada route expansion, has EI ever looked at services to the EU possessions in the Caribbean like St Maarten, Martinique, Guadeloupe etc. GC distance is shorter than MCO (although ETOPS/weather might force a longer routing). Are all the Caribbean possessions similarly deregulated as intra-European flights are and thus stopover proof?
