Right sprite1 - did they ...... Aye!
Well, they'll be the 1st airline who didn't pass a govt tax thru to the punter by admin fee, fuel charge or some other spuriously masked extra.
But maybe they do things different in EI

Q3 2013 operating profit up 4.4%
Congratulations to management with these results, particularly following the expected poor performance in short-haul, priorities need to be tight the next few months, would expect the cabin crew issues at Shannon will be sorted fairly shortly considering were now 3 months away from launch and tickets are still being sold, the IASS pension issue needs to be dealt with pronto with all sides contributing. Good to see that Long-Haul absorbed the additional A330 this summer with even higher load factors than ever.

Jays, Larry. I don't care how they phrased it.
You said they're not going to find out where all these pax live, etc etc. They don't need to. If they added €3 on to the fare and the pax paid it, it's Lingus'. The pax agreed to pay it.
If they get the rebate, it's Aer Lingus' money. The pax never paid a departure tax.
As for the fire, rehire, that's another issue.

Looks like SNN crew base could be saved, new T/A flights will operate with 5 crew between Jan and March where possible. Then 4 crew will begin full operation and it will be reviewed in July. Staff to get extra pay to.
We shall see if money talks soon....

All cabin crew will receive eight additional "credits" worth a total of €36 per trip. In addition, senior cabin crew will receive an extra 12 credits per return trip worth €54.

Its not the money talking its the LRC deciding that this system is a compromise from both positions. I wonder will EI ever carry out the "review of staffing levels" recommended by this LRC decision. I doubt it.
EI can ignore the LRC if they want, and have been doing so over the last 2 years. Hence why EI refuse pointblank to go to the Labour Court, as its directives are actually binding on both parties in a dispute.

Slight reduction in November, for example on Wednesday there will be 6 (2 DUB-JFK-DUB, 2 DUB-BOS-DUB, 1 DUB-ORD-DUB, 1 SNN-BOS-SNN). EI-LAX is in Bordeaux undergoing maintenance. from the middle of January to early March the schedule will see 5 aircraft across the atlantic on a daily basis one of which is a 757.

Probably just the number of cycles/hours between maintainence required for ETOPS approval. Bordeaux does the scheduled maintainence, so EI probably either kept it on the Atlantic for a week non ETOPs as prior planned, or perhaps the number of diversions/returns to base/hours clocked up exceeded what they'd planned for before the next maintencence was scheduled and had to operate it non-etops.
In other news: Large numbers or new routes and increased frequencies next Summer from EI.

The other 6 A330s were coming in off the Nat Tracks, EI-LAX was coming in from way north around PIKIL/SUNOT/AGORI area from Iceland. A320 and 737 delivery flights have to use similar routes. It was also in the remarks section of the flight plan that it was non-etops

Just wondering if some of you insiders think there is any chance EI could pull the plug on BHD to revert to BFS, or pull the plug on NI altogether?
Seems they are not trying very hard in the Harbour

Very hard to make money on that BHD runway with a jet, especially on a wet day. Thats why FR left

EI had great summer especially on sun routes, LHR doing well . LGW will be ok provided EZY don't step in next year and I wouldn't rule that out. At this stage some of the slots from BE have not been allocated to particular routes . If this would happen EI would simply move capacity to previous successful routes like BCN and ALC.
I can't see EI giving up on Belfast they have invested too much and to be fair to them have tried many routes albeit I think the timing of these was bad, I.e, a very difficult year they entered the market.

I cannot see EI entering BHD to BCN. Just look at the caa stats for BFS to BCN. ALC might provide better yields but EZY and LS provide all year round service to ALC and I believe 12/13 flights pw in the summer
