Loyalty me ass. Get real. Where was the loyalty when EI pulled off LHR. Business and loyalty my friend are not in the same world unfortunately. People will do whats best for them and so will the airlines, they may have a preference but not loyalty unless they are fools. EI have left the door open for a new carrier on the BOS/SNN route and that will in turn end EI's atlantic service in SNN completely. AND The last time we had a level playing field in Irish Aviation was when EI were the sole operator so give me a break.
