So if that is to be believed, it’s Pittsburgh, Montreal and a mid-west destination.

I wonder if the mid-West destination is St. Louis, which was for a long time known as the largest airport in the US without a European service. That ended when WOW launched there.

In which case the destinations don’t so much look like major destinations or hubs as much as an IAG attempt to stamp in WOW.

I see AGP and FAO not showing on EI website ex-BHD next summer. Too early to show or not operating?

Last year was the only time they've gone on sale early. Neither FR or EZY are currently on sale. EI often launch it same time as EZY, whether planned or not.

EI returning to LCY

According to The Irish Times

Under the leasing arrangement, which is a bit like a charter arrangemnet, CityJet will provide aircraft (namely two Avro RJ85 aircraft), crew, maintenance, and insurance to Aer Lingus for operating the route.

This is the beginning of the end of the Stobart agreement I’m pretty sure... although unrelated to this particular news.

Re Advance Passenger Information (API) requirement travelling to Spain.
Why is it impossible on the Aer Lingus site to enter the relevant Passport information when using the CARD version?
After several attempts failed over a number of days I had to email their Guest Services three times in total before
they acknowledged my request.
They agreed to enter the Passport CARD details for me.
I've used my CARD version of the Passport before without any problem.
I asked for an explanation but there has been no response.
Anyone out there that may throw some light on the problem?

Minneapolis/St Paul on Aer Lingus? Blimey, what’s the hook there, that’s Delta territory and no mistake.

What a shower...

Caught up in the Dublin chaos last night, which to my mind stemmed from Aer Lingus lack of preparation for Storm Ali. No pre-emptive cancellations, and seemingly no plan. Ryan Air on the other hand seemed far better organised. Our 7pm flight to Manchester left just before midnight. In the meantime the screens were normally wrong (at wrong point they were boarding an Oslo flight, while the screen said Manchester - that was fun), and we moved gate 7 times. They eventually stole the Malaga plane, and the Alicante crew..... No one from Aer Lingus walking the floor, absolute mayhem.

Brand refresh coming in 2019
The airline is to unveil a "refreshed brand identity" in January which it said "will reflect the airline's modern outlook and ambition to be the leading value carrier across the North Atlantic." A spokeswoman said "the look and feel of the brand will change" - however the Aer Lingus brand will remain.

Can't wait to see this.

Always thought the change from the previous white shamrock livery to the current one was always slightly poor especially the type-face

Fully agree! I would love to see a return to the previous colours much like Air Canada did with their recent livery redesign. Just PLEASE don't do a Lufthansa!

there had been rumour of a deal between EI and ASL for two B734’s but it has supposedly fallen through. Who would be operating the ex Blue Air B734? Is the rumour for a dry lease or wet lease?

I’ve just seen a Blue Air 734 sitting on the ramp beside the ASL hangar in SNN this morning. Could this be the lease EI are going for?

I believe those Blue Air 737-400s at SNN are just in transit before going to the US, they may well be back in time for ASL Ireland to operate for Aer Lingus though.

PHL will be the first A321LR route, if it gets delivered on time!

Is Aer Lingus still following through with their A350 order? I heard also that the A330 NEO is appealing to them.

Most discussion on this and other boards suggests the A350's won't be coming and that in the short to medium term any new widebodies will be A330-300 CEO's with GE engines.
