Mores the point weres it going to fit on t2!! I guess if its anything like the ord service aa run it shud arrive in dub well after the morning rush!!
One thing that will help a little is the A330 departure to AGP at 07.40 is being moved to 06.50 next summer.
And if reports are correct that EI are growing strongly their connecting passenger number ex EU to USA, there will be in effect less capacity available for passenger originating in Ireland.
EI-BUD
I estimate the increaed capacity from EI and the AA service that there is approx 165,000 extra seats available from DUB to the US next Summer based of the summer schedule from 31 March-26 October. It will now push DUB ever closer to the 2 million T/A passengers yearly. Many Americans start off in Ireland before flying onwords to Europe with EZY and FR.
Its not clear weather the AA service will be year dispite what the DAA press release says but that will be confirmed by 4 November. Wouldn't be suprised is Delta add a little capacity either.
