A problem that EI are encountering now is that they got used to having 40 mins turnaround out of DUB using Pier A/D with 2 sets of steps. Now in T2 they are back to jetbridge with single door which causes a slower boarding process but the scheduling/Operations mgmt haven't changed the rotation times.
So, what is stopping them continuing to use 2 sets of steps at T2 or, even if they didn't want to use steps under normal circumstances, why not use them for disembarkation/boarding at least when the flight is behind schedule in order to speed up the process?
Another thing I have noticed about EI is that they seem to have an inordinate number of passengers that think that everyone else should stand and wait while they divest themselves of luggage/handbags into the bins having first removed several items therefrom and placed them on the seats, strip down to shirt or blouse and then discuss who wants to sit at the window. And with no encouragement from the cc to stand in out of the way. grrr!!!!
