Mart, you were doing well until the "why should DUB get everything" bit. That's like Stansted crying about Heathrow. DUB is, was and always will be the dominant airport on this island. It's not about divvying up sweeties between kids. It's hard business, and comparing the economically barren (by any measure) Northern Ireland with any of the other regions they fly from really is naive (that's long before we include population).

Have a look at the Emirates thread. There's a chap on there who regularly lists where the next routes are, frequency and aircraft type. If BFS is to get EK, it'll be on there first.
