Does anyone no if Aer Lingus will bring on a route from Shannon to Lanzarote?
If there does come a new Aer Lingus route Shannon to Lanzarote, I would how they would achieve this:
  • Once a week (for example) use the Shannon based A320 to fly to Lanzarote instead of a couple of Heathrow sectors
  • Base an A320 in Lanzarote and use that aircraft to operate routes to Cork, Dublin, Belfast and Shannon
  • Base an extra A320 in Shannon, introduce Lanzarote and a host of other routes
  • Fly a W from Dublin or Cork: ORK - ACE - SNN [Crew change] SNN - ACE - ORK (That crew change thing would be costly and cumbersome...)

I am surprised EI havnt taken up some slack after FR.
They're probably enjoying the increasing yields at Cork and Dublin.
