Whilst passing through DUB last week, I thought that I'd gone through a time-warp as sitting outside one of the maintenance hangars was a 737 (?) in full Eastern Airlines colours from back in the 1970's....Whose was it ? Are they planning to make a come back as did PanAm, of sorts, a few years back ? Any info appreciated

Aha! The photo on their website is exactly that which I saw, I just couldn't see how long it was to confirm it a a 737. Good for them!

Yes, they launched with rather a lot of starry-eyed hopefulness and ambitious airplane orders. Things promptly quiet. Hard to say for sure what's what now.

Here as of Feb/2017:
