Thats good news indeed! I think with the weather lately up on the hill, airlines have little choice but to look for alternitives to walking across a wet, windy and potentially dangerous ramp. Still though the problem reamins about the distant stands, like 1-6 for example.
I hope we will eventually see the number of airbridges brought back to four, and if EI commit to using them, then there is a good chance! One question though? Isthe airbridge in Cork capable of boarding passengers through the mid cabin exit doors found on the 757 and 321, or do they just use forward doors only?
