Ryanair to go to 5 per day on ORK DUB, I feel sorry for Aer Arann but they did begin to lose passengers due to their diversion rate earlier this year.

They told the media that their crews were CAT2 rated but when push came to shove few if any of their pilots carried out any CAT 2 approaches during the year. Does anyone know the reason for this contradiction. Is it due to the fact that they have such a large variety of ATR aircarft?

This a receipe for frequent diversions when Cork gets clamped in with low cloud.

Neidin, does this mean that Cork could start negotiating with a US carrier for 2006 or 2007, once an open skies agreement is signed.

I heard that EI were looking at ORK JFK and even carried out detailed studies of the runway etc. Interesting times ahead.
