Who knew
Still,
A huge amount of people don't know about flying BA from and to LHR on DUB.
It is still very much feed traffic. ..........and feed traffic is now split between EI and BA......EI then having the better schedule.
Has much been spend advertising BA - LHR - DUB?
Regards

Welcome on board, Kiki!
This is great news - the EY 77Ws have a considerably higher capacity (416, vs. approx. 270 on the A332s), so that's quite a lift.
The 77Ws will only operate on the morning flight, i.e. arriving at c.6.40 and departing at 9am. The afternoon flight will still be A332 operated, now 4 weekly.

Great to see Air Moldova expanding at DUB but not really the best of timings ?
Ryanair resuming Dublin-Zadar route from April
Also Norwegian Air Shuttle are launching a Dublin-Helsinki route from Tuesday 14th April 2013 and will run till 26th October, twice weekly (Tuesdays and Fridays)
Flights Depart Dublin 1900 Arrive Helsinki 2350
Flights Depart Helsinki 1700 Arrive Dublin 1810
Will be good to have some competition on the route with EI

Great news for Dublin, I am sure. Norwegian from Helsinki to Dublin a few times a week.
Sure, the ol' DAA might as well close down Cork all together, sow a few spuds, and give their pals in Shannon a bit of leg up with their new SAA.
That's the style!

Tom's right. With improved road and rail transport to Dublin one day the powers that be could get away with 'non viable' argument and close ORK.
Good news with EK and the unmentionable one. At least someone has spotted and prospered from the advantages of a relatively short runway.

Close Cork?
The same logic for closing Cork could be applied to Shannon and Knock both of which are closer to Dublin although the latter doesn't yet have a motorway link. Both Shannon, Cork and even the Belfast Airports now have to cope with the strong magnetic pull of Dublin in the same way that airports in the South of England have to deal with Heathrow.
