For those who rubbish this route, i think it will work very well on a number of levels. firstly driving to belfast can be a nightmare due to traffic on the m1, secondly the train breaks down often, thirdly, re still have to make a mistake with regard to routes (discounting szd-dub, early days) and finally there are quite a few people, me included, that take charters or easy ex belfast and would consider this a nice way to finish off the trip, provided the price is right. It has also been mentioned that fr may be starting a base in belfast, with dublin being a route considered, but this is, as yet, pie inthe sky.
