the speculation was that FR were to increase LGW and that was why the number of DUB flights was being reduced. FR don't currently compete ith EI on any route, so they may decide to avenge the EI attack on LGW with going head-to-head on a current EI route. Although there are better options, IMHO. Many destinations such as HHN or the Scandinavian Airports, not to mention Milan or Madrid currently unserved from Cork. No need to go after EI, there is, even still, much lower hanging fruit.
