Same here, i remember reading a post think by yourself Jamie about a year ago with an article about SAS overnighting at DUB never materialised though wonder will it this time ? :ugh:

Personally I'd like to see a day time transatlantic, say a 0800 departure *from* Newark. That should get in early enough for a late evening return...

late evening departure would be at 22.00 earliest. I woudl not like to arrive NJ at 01.00. It would need a 05.30/06.00 EWR dep and 20.00 DUB dep. If you take BAS from LHR for example last JFK dep is at 20.00 - perfect flight. In bed for midnight and no jet lag! But this is a long way off....

US Air to operate 757's instead of 767's on Philedelphia Dublin next Summer.

Latest News > Dublin Airport Charges To Remain Flat in 2012

Reduced charges for winter and increased a lesser amount for summer 2012. DAA had the choise to increase charges next year as the Avation Rgulators cap is highter that the 2012 charges. Of course Ryanair is not happy as per. Charges are 17% lower than 2009 next year.

Us airways to maintain 767 from April or may to phl and 757 on clt

Still showing as B757-200 all summer in OAG system and US airways website.

PHL - DUB was 5 weekly 767 this year and 2 weekly 757 until CLT started/finished when it was daily 767.

DUB and GLA were released as 757 next summer becasue PHL - FRA drops from A330-200/300 to a 767 except for the peak months of June - Sep. So would expect a 767 to appear at some stage.

767
 

The guys in US Airways Dublin are expecting the 767. And for the following year they are quietly hopeing their new Envoy class will turn up rather than the currect business class offering.

US Airways seating capacity

B757-200 12C + 164Y = 176 total
B767-200 12C + 179Y = 191 total

A difference of 15, all of it in Economy. The aircraft are pretty much
interchangable for this mission. The step up is the ' bus below

A330-200 20C + 238Y = 258 total

From a customer service point of view - the twin isle feels roomier. It'll be curious to see what CO do.

Currently CO have 1 757 on EWR for summer 12. So they are effectively reducing/redeploying seats. Assuming this is an effort to help yield. Interesting plan. Will CO bring a 767 in on the EWR run for the summer?

Both MAN/DUB-EWR are likely to stay as B757-200 for Summer 2012, and once the Domestic B767-300 are converted to International J/Y config, we could see these on the EWR flights as the B767-200 is being phased out as well as too premium heavy, and the B767-400 is a little too big.

The airline capacity is the same, it's just being operated from Washington Dulles IAD, at the US end in addtion to the existing EWR.

Reading else where that CO have freed up a B764 in EWR yet to be decided where it will operate...As of last week United flights operated by CO EWR - Athens have being pulled for summer 2012 schedule.

Will be October before any increase as IAD is daily year round.

Its more than likely going to replace a B767-200 route, given they are starting to phase these out.

If it was between MAN/DUB however, its hard to say. MAN-IAD starts ahead of DUB-IAD so possibility MAN could get and upgrade sooner, but without seeing the yields between MAN/DUB it is hard to call.
