the dublin flight could be successful if the price is right, but i cant see new york ever happen, the same thing happened with the palma flights, they never took of either, if the want to start commercial flights they need to get a proper passenger terminal built
Read the text of the press release carefully. It's a one off charter to cater for the specific Christmas trade - not a regular route. You are right - the Palmer flights NEVER did take off - the flights were withdrawn before the scheduled start date due to reasons other than loadings.

There is a proper terminal - a very nice and new FBO VIP facility. I'm sure it would be expanded if scheduled flights happen and loadings dictate a bigger facility but at the moment there are better/other things to spend money on!
