The best hope for a US flight ex ORK is CO, DL or EI. DL and CO have the right a/c (757), and EI has a base there and strong brand recognition. Maybe ORK-BFS-JFK. I'm sure EI want T/A ex BFS and ORK, but BFS crew cant operate T/A, so a service ex ORK would be a good alternative. 3 New York services ex SNN is a lot, considering BHX has one!!! I'm sure over time, EI wont be soo commited to SNN, especially once most of the 330's are updated, and more carries look at flying ex DUB to the US. With EI keen to start more US routes and an Asian service, flying 330's ex SNN wont be such a priority, and an ORK-BFS-USA route will seem more appealing to serve the West
