Due to some unforeseen circumstances, Phase I of our summer route expansion has been delayed until the end of this week. Rather than being uploaded in one batch, they may be released in smaller installations throughout the week. A news release will be posted at each upload.
The A330 has completed preliminary paint work and is currently deployed on proving routes. The testing has so far exceeded expectations. The A330 will be introduced on existing 767 trans-Atlantic routes, with the 767s being shifted to new service.

Our summer route expansion is almost complete, and the first block of flights will be uploaded into the system by the end of the week (August 13th). The second block is scheduled to enter the system in September. The expansion will include the addition of E170, ERJ145, A319 and A321 aircraft. Flights will be added from the Dublin hub, including some point-to-point routes within Europe, as well as more routes for our current EuroLink network anchored in Cork.
The more significant additions will involve the additions of Shannon and Belfast as focus cities, as well as a further build-up of routes at the future Frankfurt hub. Shannon will be a blend of EuroLink regional jet flights as well as A319 mainline flights. Belfast will be integrated into our EuroLink regional jet network. Frankfurt will also see the addition of both regional jet and A319/321 mainline flights.
