Delta announces new routes to connect New York-JFK, Boston to Europe | Delta News Hub

Guess KLM and ST had more than just AMS plans for DUB.....

Una Due Tfc 29th Sep 2016 13:14

Frankly I'm amazed it's taken this long for somebody else to take a bite. EI have been filling 2 A330s a day on the route for years now in peak season.

EI-A330-300 29th Sep 2016 18:41

Great news from DL. EI must of been expecting someone to join them with a long time. both will do just fine and it will likely be enough to make DUB the second largest international route from BOS. CDG sits at 2 and DUB at 3.

Transavia to MUC is another completely un expected addition.

PPRuNeUser0176 29th Sep 2016 21:19

Could be one or two more bits of news over next few months, not referring to news such as EI routes etc

Segregation of 200 gates has also started.

Sabre timetable is currently listing 4th weekly flight for Air Canada rouge's Vancouver – Dublin in S17, however this is unconfirmed.

In other news:

TS back to x4 weekly and YUL will now be direct end to end and not YYZ-YUL-DUB-YUL-YYZ.

EI increase LAX from 4 weekly to daily (1/6/17) which has now filled one aircraft with MIA (strongly rumoured) and expected flight numbers posted elsewhere. MCO also returns it's fourth weekly service (1/6/17) and 300 ops to SFO start on 4/7 weekly in May.

LAX must of had a good summer as they dropped the planned fifth weekly this summer.

EI-A330-300 13th Oct 2016 11:33

Almost 2.6 million in September up 11%

Europe 1.4 million up 11%
UK 825,000 up 10%
Transatlantic 317,000 up 16%
ME/N Africa 66,000 down 2%

Etihad
 
EY have announced they will return to full 2 daily year round operations from 1 April 2017 (6 months currently). They will also be moving from T2 to T1 on 24 January 2017. Their lounge is slightly close to 300 gates as well.

The airline’s overall capacity to and from Dublin will increase by 11% next year.

Seat capacity on the Dublin-Stockholm service is expanding by 9%; Dublin-Oslo will expand by 16% and Dublin-Copenhagen will increase by 9%.
Next year is not looking to bad with Air Canada, Air Transit, KLM, SAS, Delta, Transavia and Aer Lingus expanding. Another carrier may also be announcing new routes over the next while.

Couple of new charters as well including planning resumption of charters to Turkey.

Stevek 17th Oct 2016 18:55

Have Ryanair reached a deal with the DAA yet? Osijek, Luxembourg and Dubrovnik were supposedly on the cards

EI-A330-300 17th Oct 2016 19:12

There is no deal to be reached.....FR had the deal other airlines had. As for the routes two are served and croatia airlines will serve the last. Really cant see LUX been a route FR are interested in.

The alleged cuts are far from clear as some will happen even if they had a deal as situation is beyond their control and the daa.

https://www.dublinairport.com/latest...e-400-new-jobs


Four hundred new jobs are to be created at Dublin Airport with the opening of a new terminal-linked four star hotel which is to be built adjacent to Terminal 2.

The new hotel will provide employment for 250 people, while an additional 150 new jobs will be generated during the construction phase of the project. The new 402 bedroom property will be Ireland’s fourth largest hotel upon completion.

Planning permission for the 11-storey hotel has already been granted. Construction is expected to begin next October and the property will open in 2019.

The new hotel will have a total floor area of 22,840 square metres comprising 402 bedrooms, as well as extensive bar, restaurant, café and conference facilities and a fitness suite. It will occupy a prime 0.81 acre site between Terminal 2 and the T2 multi-storey car park – and will be located just 95 metres from Terminal 2.
_____

In recent weeks Radisson Blu announced they are to seek permission to build a second 7 story (144 rooms) hotel in the car park next to existing one while The Clayton plan to add 140 rooms.

_____

QR also speaking about DUB again and the CEO says they need Airbus to deliver A350's to free up B787's before it can start.

racedo 27th Oct 2016 12:40

11 storey hotel in airport.................. ok unless it is above roof height of terminals

AerRyan 27th Oct 2016 13:01

Yup, will be slightly higher than T2.

Strange to be allowed build such a tall building in Dublin, the planning laws are really restrictive on tall buildings here.

Una Due Tfc 27th Oct 2016 21:21

Reminds me of that incident years ago where a Spanair mistook that big hotel in Ballymun for runway 34.

The AAIU flew the same approach in the same weather conditions in a helicopter and found the lights on the hotel roof bore a striking resemblance to approach lights and the lights in the stairwells either side of the building looked exactly like runway edge lights, all were changed IIRC.

FlightLine wasn't it Una Due Tfc? Remember that well too.

Ah perhaps, operating on behalf of Spanair maybe, or I'm just totally wrong about the company

Report into serious air incident

Crash narrowly avoided after pilot mistook hotel for runway | Irish Examiner

"The lights on the top of the hotel were changed from fixed red lights to flashing red in October 2007 after an initial report into the incident said they lighting could be mistaken for approach lights."

It seemed to be operated by FlightLine for Aviajet.

Liverpool axed with Stobart from January.

EY move to T1 early next year will enable US airlines access to an extra gate (10 in total) for next summer. Work started.

What Pier/Gates will EY use?

EI-A330-300 11th Nov 2016 09:56


What Pier/Gates will EY use?
B/300 ones, most likely 303 or 306.

ayroplain 11th Nov 2016 22:02


B/300 ones, most likely 303 or 306.
Thanks.

That should be interesting. An extra 300 passengers and their cabin baggage crammed into what is a quite small Gate area that doesn't have enough seats per gate even for short haul. Or will they be shunted downstairs to where the old pre-Clearance was?

EI-A330-300 11th Nov 2016 23:13

The EY departure times are when it's pretty quiet. Given it's EY you can be sure they have discussed such issues and they will want the same level of service that was offered in T2 as they would not of moved otherwise. Not sure if down stairs will be used.

Sober Lark 12th Nov 2016 08:48

So are they taking their recently constructed business class lounge with them from T2 to T1??

EI-A330-300 12th Nov 2016 09:42

No, there is no real difference in the walk to either gate, in fact 300 gates are slightly closer to ir.

PPRuNeUser0176 13th Nov 2016 12:10

Travel Extra say EI will update media on Tuesday about 2017 routes.

Noxegon 13th Nov 2016 18:26

At this point I'll believe it when it happens.

Aer Lingus
 
Miami (x3), Porto (X3), Split (x2) commence in 2017. Extra capacity to Orlando (+1), Chicago (+2-3) and LA (+3).

Long Haul capacity will grow to over 2.5 million seats in 2017 (+21%) while Short Haul capacity will grow by over 100,000 seats.

johnrizzo2000 15th Nov 2016 15:11

Great to see the new MIA route and increase on other t/a routes!

Apart from Oporto and Split, any ideas on any routes dropped/frequencies increased on the European network?

To early but looks like some schedule tweaking and they have an extra based aircraft moved form BHD which will give a few extra slots.

bnt 16th Nov 2016 14:21

Irish Times reporting traffic in October up 9% over the previous October. Transatlantic traffic up 26% to more than 291,000. I read that as travellers to the US from Europe discovering the joys of pre-clearance in Dublin. :cool:

Between ET and EI LAX will have 11 weekly flights up from 7!

ia350 20th Nov 2016 15:05

Have both Aer lingus and Ryanair finalized their summer schedule yet ?

PPRuNeUser0176 21st Nov 2016 18:21

Not fully, it's usually after Christmas before they are complete, you usually see extra flights etc added based on routes performing well once January bookings come in.

ET are also apparently considering applying for permission to stop on a second route.
