Thumbs down GO bullied out of Dublin

After only starting a new route and most welcomed route from Scotland to Dublin Go Airlines are set to pull the plug on the route in March due to the pressure put on them by Ryanair's low fares on the same routes.. .Shame to see such an airline go elsewhere and no doubt jobs lost in Dublin airport. <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

Is this the same Go airline that we heard this about months ago? Not exactly news mate. Let's see whether bmibaby have a big warchest when they open EIDW routes...

Unhappy

From what my contacts are telling me they. .are being "bullied" out by Ryanair's fares on the. .same routes and Ryanair getting preferential treatment out of EIDW..... .GO have decided it's not worth the fight and. .are pulling the plug on the route in March. .My main concern is yet more jobs being lost in an airport that will see alot of redundancies due to ALT.
