Just ask your selfs will 16 seats in Business and all cargo capacity be filled from NOC daily/weekly. If you can't fill those two then there is no hope and thats what airlines will look at. Economy is just the icing on the cake for carriers.
People who live in Galway and Midlands, if they find cheaper prices from DUB or SNN over NOC and lets face it with lots of competition from DUB and SNN cheaper flights are a guarantee and journey times are more less the same they will go for DUB or SNN.
Having a T/A service will force NOC to open for an arrival at 07.00 (if you want decent connections from the US airport).
We live in Ireland, not the UK or Europe who's population is much larger and carriers like Delta can't even make MAN-JFK work.
