Not exactly true.
But we wont argue over that. Different AOC/Management/Pot of Money.

Interesting expansion plan into IT next year but I cant say much now.

The latest innovation? Pay to skip the security queues. What are the odds that the queues will go completely to hell now?

Welcome to Airport Club at Dublin Airport

€150/year seems very steep for that benefit alone. I'd imagine most frequent fliers already have lounge cards...

Give a little more info.

Have to agree. Security at peak times takes 10 - 15 mins at most.

I agree, that seems singularly poor value for money. Let me get this straight: I pay €150 per year, and for that I get to skip the first part of the security queue (then I walk through the door and have to join the queues for the individual machines). Oh, but I also get a 25% discount off lounge access, so it only costs me €15 each time rather than €20. I don't think I'll be rushing out to sign up.

i see the point of allowing onward travel to the US but i dint think this will happen until EI Regional can merge its operations into T2 or at least Pier B.
Pier E can't cope with US aircraft and EI in the mornings and EI in the evenings. Add EI regional to the mix and it would make things worse. Pier B is not suitable for EI regional and most other carriers in T1 operate from it as well as EI.

I've only flown through Pier E once so far so maybe someone could answer this question.

Is there anywhere that passengers could be dropped off by bus.

It wouldn't be an uncommon arrangement to park turboprops remotely and bus people to them. Indeed, this happens often enough at Pier A. So maybe that's a solution to the Pier A/E problem.

A bit of confusion there I think. Apologies.

I meant dropped off from the aircraft to the terminal airside by bus.

As far as I know you can't in T2 but you can in T1. Its being a long time since an airline has had to do it.

Any good route news for winter 2011. ANy airline that pulls out over the winter should be forced to repay any of the subsides they got to start the routes in the first place and i would say that based on the total lack of commitment from the airlines at leats that the travel tax will be back on again in the Dec budget.

The Travel Tax of €3 per departing passenger still remains, it is due to be removed in Budget 2012 (first Wednesday of December). the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport - Leo Varadkar has said it wont be removed as the MoT are still reviewing proposals by Aer Arann, Aer Lingus, CityJet and of course Ryanair, they're set to announce there reviews of the proposals before the Summer schedule is out, he also wants to see what the full Winter schedules are like before he pulls the ATT in December.

The DAA offered seasonal incentive schemes this year. The same as the Short Haul year round but the discounts are not as much. 60%, 40% and 20% for seasonal compared to 100%, 75%, 50% for year round.

Ryanair extra aircraft at Dublin? They generally like to move them away from Dublin. Do Ryanair handle all there flights or do they have a contract with a ground handling company. In T2 how are check-in desks 1 - 28 split between the american carriers.

Ryanair have no extra aircraft in DUB than 2009/2010.
Summer 18 based.
March - May 16 based
May - September 18 based
September - October 16 based

Winter yet to be confirmed but will be more less the same as 2010/11 and Ryanair handle all there flights.

T2 - Check-In
Eithad - Desks 1 - 4
Delta - Desks 5 - 12
Continental - Desks 13 - 17
US Airways - Desks 18 - 23
American - Desks 24 - 28
Aer Lingus - Desks 29 - 56

Delta may also use some of EY/CO desks as I was there on Friday as a passenger and they had 6 desk open for the 767 to JFK at 14.10. I think they use 6 - 8 for the A330 to ATL.
