Thats true but if an open skies agreement was reached the SNN stopover would be axed.
As for CO continuing SNN for the summer I d be almost sure they would because they are gettin good loads on all their Irish routes.

I wasnt referring to bermuda 2 I was referring to European-US open skies overall.I dont thinki theres a lack of interest.Americans love coming here and numbers of Americans visting have been the highest this year since 9/11.AA used to fly here but dropped it when EI joined One World all EI transatalntic flights have AA codeshares.

Awesome pictures.You said the compression wast doing them justcie.If it wasnt the real things must be incredible.Well done.I want to get into aviation photogarpy but at the moment Im using an extremley expensinve digital camera.It fairly compact and the zoom isnt great.I feel so weird when I bring it to Dublin all the pros with the long lenses.

I got an email from Thompsonfly earlier it said

Where about is Doncaster.I didnt know where Norwich was either but Ive just found it while looking for Doncaster.
When reading an atlas what does 23 H6 meen.
The 23 doesnt stand for the page number unless Doncaster is in the middle east.

Its about time that Europe-US had open skies becasue its not only LHR its effecting.
The growth of US carriers into ireland speciffically Dublin is extremley hampered.
At it is all airlines operating transatlantic services to Dublin must operate equal services into Shannon.
Airlines are now despretley trying to find ways around this with CO now operating seperate flight to DUB and SNN during the summer and EI setting up MCO as charter flights but as ar as I am aware those flight must stop in SNN on the way home.
If an open skies aggrement was reached it would benifit all airlines operating transatlantic serives from DUB hugely and would preobably attrat 1 or 2 ew airlines such as UA and AA.
However with the good there is always bad and the west of Ireland would be left stranted with no intercontinental flights.
But to be honest I dont even know why they have them.

Air Wales are already operating Norwich to Dublin but I have no idea hows its going.FlyBe are certainly flying arnt they?

There is alot of eastern Europeans in Dublin now very hard workers indeed who honestly coundt care what way you treat them as long as they get paid sop without being biased I think Dublin may have more chance then those airports but Dublin has quite high landing charges so to be be 100% honest I cant see any of those airports getting Wizz serivce or Dublin either.But as I always say You never know.
