The lads on the hill are certainly out-doing themselves at themoment, with both busses AND an airbridge! Hope it stays that way.
I will be at the airport myself tomorrow (on the RE from LBA) so twill be interesting to see if I get soaked or not!
One more thought has struck me as regards EI and Cork. I flew EI LHR-ORK a fortninght ago(great flight by the way!) and the had a chat with the F/A as regards the MAN route. Funny thing is the Cork base thought they would get the flying! This would seem to indicate that the plans for a/c no5 were canx pretty suddenly.
That or one or two routes were spared the chop? I think Aer Lingus missed a trick with LHR though, the morn and eve flights are always packed to the rafters, 95%+ full. What do they do? Add a bloody afternoon flight! Shuould have gone for a based 321 instead. Actually both!
Another oppertunity gone west, instead of 3/4 new routes we got one.....hmmm!
Maybe next summer!
