Looks like they'll be launching pre-booked meals on board, and rolling out Wi-fi over the A330 fleet. This should really set them out above their competitors....
Or just do a twice weekly service to Toronto like they do with MCO, I mean even ACA only do a single weekly service to DUB from Toronto even now in the height of the summer season...

EI codeshare on the DUB-AUH route. With the pulling of the MAD-IAH route, could you see EI metal on DUB-AUH? Or will there be a 2nd daily flight to ORD, or BOS next summer with the spare aircraft?
MCO is a 2 weekly at the moment, any plans to go back to 3 weekly?

Possible long haul routes
Firstly its wrong to say Air Canada operates a once weekly flight to Toronto in the summer- its daily in the peak season with a build up in June and a gradual pahse out in September. Air Transat is also operating 4 or 5 a week to Toronot, some via Montreal and some on A310 and others on A330.
The rumour about extra long haul routes seems to emerge every few weeks - last time it was a new east coast route though I would have thought that the east coast is well served from Ireland, particularly in summer - Boston, JFK, Newark, Philadelphia, Dulles, Charlotte, Chicago (not really east coast I know), Atlanta and Orlando - not many options left.
If the other rumours about AA not returning in 2013 prove to be more than rumours, perhaps a few extra Chicago services might make money.

West coast forget about.....way too small an operation re crew utilization. I'd say any new rtes will be east/mid USA or Canada. Theyll be flying extra rotations to cargo next summer.....route is hammers as it is with their single daily

Aer Lingus' A321s
Cracking vid of an EI A321!
I know that 3 were disposed of, but they seem to be keeping the remaining 3. Anybody have any info on their future as they are quite old at this stage(12-13 years old)?

Then on the other hand passengers could be sick of complaining about FR as nothing changes
It seems you may be forgetting the cabin crew strike in early 2011...can't see that pleasing passengers.

At least staff at EI are a right to express there concerns unlike Ryanair crew who would most lightly get the sack if they did.
