EI
Halifax the new Dubai?
To make it work a Canadian partner is needed , that's the issue for EI
Plus ideally UA or JetBlue working multiple connections to USA ,
Still lots of news, growth in the pipeline

Aer Lingus management stated a few weeks ago that they would announce a new Canadian partner for the Toronto route shortly, this was before the WestJet announcement so I wonder if their plans for a new interline/codeshare partner were changed after this?

Halifax
Well not really , Halifax UK is a better bet point to point according to routes there is a limited point to point market , but the idea would be connecting traffic one stop
dub Yvr
Dub sea
Etc etc via Halifax rather than the normal busy hubs

Indeed, the only existing routes which would be of much use (competitively speaking) transferring from Halifax would be Calgary, Ottawa and Montreal (all three of which would be easily accessible from Toronto Pearson (and of course there is a range of rural destinations in NS and NL)).
I suppose what EI's game plan with Halifax is going to be subject to conjecture until something more concrete comes of it.

FR
It's 11 months and 18 days since I passed any negative comment on FR
And now ducksie has gone all customer focused on us, still a great airline
Once they allow competition and if EI single aisle does TATL then FR will follow?

Two of the ex Iberia 320s were originally etops specc'd. No idea what the performance/payload figures look like nor the config. Could be a runner as far as wacky rumours go I suppose.

I think the plan would be for the connections to be on this side rather than via YHZ to somewhere else, eg.
UK-DUB-YHZ
EI has got Scotland well covered which could connect with a YHZ flight from DUB, also for pax in NI at is a short drive down to DUB. Zoom flew from BFS to YHZ a few years back.
Even if the market from DUB is small, you can tap into all the UK markets for additional traffic.
Direct options from the UK to YHZ are very limited at the moment.

With DUB now back over 20 million per annum, how long will it be till we see an extension to the runway - what is the threshold that must be surpassed?
Does anyone know roughly how many additional seats will be on sale with the recent announcements?
