Great utilisation of the terminal , in early in the morning and gone before the peak wave of long haul arrivals ... Good timings , hopefully it works out well . Even though EI will compete for the California traffic, perhaps an opportunity for EI to code share and enable EU to LA via Dub and Ethopia to various US cities via DUB?

In my opinion people who want to fly to LAX won't see SFO as an alternative in many cases. If EI can't offer LAX for UK/European pax, then why not codeshare with ET and capture an extra market on the SH side. Same goes for addis

Given ADD-DUB is a tiny market and the while point of this is to link ADD-LAX, the only way it's gonna make money is for the ADD through traffic to be high and the DUB-LAX joining to be as small as possible.
Ethiopian Airlines should be a puddle in an Ireland-US sea, if they're selling cheap p2p in that DUB-LAX sector, they've got their sums wrong. Aer Lingus should not quite be rendering the garments just yet.

DUB ADD may be small market, the onwards may be the market. The Irish diaspora runs deep through east and south Africa so I think the market may indeed just be there and Ireland has a very viberant African community. ET may just be on a winner

As for Qatar, it is only a matter of time and they have discussed such a route and a Winter 14/15 start was the most recent estimate pending aircraft delivers etc so I guess summer 2015 would be possibly.
EK second daily has being poor until the winter schedule began but I still believe its not doing massively well. An ATR42 would of matched passenger numbers at times.

That doesn't tally with passenger figures linked in your post #2940 showing a +31% increase to 57,000 passengers to Middle East and North Africa.

Well I'm no einstein but Etihad have upped capacity by 40% since last year and Emirates by 100%, so on that basis 31% increase in uptake doesn't look too clever to me..

How many seats a week on EK and EY? If EI-A330-300's idea about an ATR is correct then the idea about Qatar seems far fetched.
Cozy F, the DAA press release combines passenger numbers to/from Middle East with North Africa. I assume this is to protect commercially sensitive information on the Middle East route. We don't know how many of those 57,000 are using EY and EK.
Still no dedicated business / first class lounge for EK. You'd have thought they'd have had one by now.

Loads have being as low atr42 capacity. Before the winter schedule it operated mores less as point to point. It has improved but believe its not as good for connections still. It was always going to a hard job to fill a second daily flight in the first place. Im sure such numbers are not common but its not doing well either.
Cargo could be good on the route though.
As for Qatar, they are not going to care if EK cant fill their aircraft. I think its unlikely but it will happen in future.

They don't have to but I expect it will help if they did.
