See what happens when your connection is 30mins late and you've to wait another 48 hours for the next flight as has happened to a close friend of mine.
And disagree about it suiting Knock, but that's not for this thread.
I see no basis for the ORK-BOS service to operate now, as it was announced as part of a Barcelona flight which has now itself started independently. It'll be soon forgotten, no annoehcnemeng will be made, and it'll be a few months until we hear if it again. Hope I'm wrong but I doubt I will be.
