SOE - bulk or no bulk, a tech stop still adds a huge amount to the cost base, and it is a major disadvantage to customers. The longer the journey, the less MOL can gain by bartering down airport costs, even on a point-to-point service.
I would have thought BGR would be a more likely destination in its own right - but its core appeal would be during the fall, which wouldn't fit in well with other rosters, so I don't see it happening. It might have limited appeal for people wanting to pick up a car and drive across the US, or perhaps as a BOS North, but I don't think we're talking daily service.
Could DUB or SNN - BOS or YYZ be managed on a 738, in a mix of biz & econ, or would this be out of range?

If Ryanair do this I cant see a fuel stop on a small 737 working, You need big A/C full of passengers paying alot less than the normal Transatlantic fare.
On another note a Niagra Falls service would be nice.

Something tells me that Ryanair might require more than 44 seats.
Quote from the Privitair website
In October 2005, PrivatAir commenced operation of a six-days-a-week, business-class-only service between Amsterdam and Houston on behalf of KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, using a 44-seat Boeing Business Jet.
Swiss also use them from Zurich but I believe that some of these routes are changing soon.

Ljubljana Airport has begun talks with the low cost airline Ryanair in fear that Slovenia’s biggest airport will suffer as a result of Adria Airways’ plan to cut up to a third of its flights from the Slovenian capital.

The negotiations with LJU airport are still under way. If finalized, we can expect flights there beginning from end March (not earlier, unfortunately, but the Alps are beautiful also in Summer). Under discussion are routes from NRN, RYG, CIA, MAD and one or two UK routes.

Low fares
Can anyone tell me if the UK website will ever change back to showing the fare instead of just saying low fares available ?
It is going on abit to long to be just a tech issue.
BTW... Nice to hear that LCA will be new base .

Ignoring wikipedia, and looking at Boeing website here
Boeing: Commercial Airplanes - 737 - Range Charts
gives you the definitive answer.

From Wikipedia....
The 737-900ER, which was called the 737-900X prior to launch, is the newest addition and the largest variant of the Boeing 737 line and was introduced to meet the range and passenger capacity of the discontinued 757-200.
An additional pair of exit doors and a flat rear pressure bulkhead increase seating capacity to 180 passengers in a 2-class configuration or 215 passengers in a single-class layout.
If a 757 can cross the pond, why cant this aircraft?

Malaga in November
May I point out pee that Malaga is a damn sight warmer than the plus15 degrees you are suggesting in November - on average 20 deg I should know I live on the coast! Cannot understand Ryanair dropping the Tampere route as we get a lot of Scandahooligans (local joke) here in the winter to get away from the cold weather and dark days and play a lot of golf etc.
