LGW-DUB will double in frequency on a codeshare basis
Lord Lardy
BA is axing LGW DUB with effect from end of winter schedule and EI will increase theirs from 4 to 5 a day. so not doubling of frequency there. So BA are coming onto BFS LHR once a day??? Where did this information come from? It sounds a bit far fetched to me. I dont see this happening.
BA are avoiding markets that are saturated and at the moment Belfast London does not need another operator.
Aer Lingus' costbase will be as low as any other operaters out of Gatwick when the base opens
I agree with this comment completely. EI have a good cost base, although not as low as FR it is in good shape. If EI can manage to compete with FR at DUB at such a scale for so long they are well fit to manage against EZY.
You are also spot on re the A330. Aer Lingus are set on expanding the transatlantic schedule and BFS was chosen partly for this and that will come once the current financial climate improves and then we have LGW!
This will do fine!
