Thanks for your responses guys.
One thing that has confused me a little bit is that these 'City' Routes (Dub, Cdg, Ams) Don't seem to offer onwards connections. I'm no expert on this matter so i may have missed something, but surely these routes could offer connections which would significantly boost numbers on the routes. From DUB there are many North American routes which would be attractive one stop connections with EI whilst CDG and AMS obviously both offer routes across the world with AF/KLM.
Is there a reason this hasn't been looked into? So far I believe the only one stop connections available are on Flybe Metal through GLA/MAN
