Aside from a small number of extra passengers, all an Cork-New York service would achieve is taking passengers off their Cork-Heathrow, Cork-Amsterdam and Shannon/Dublin-New York routes. They won't want to undermine their own loads and yields.

If they ever do launch it, it'll be a defensive move to keep another carrier out.

Remember that there was no great expansion of European routes from Cork until Jetmagic came along.
