If Miami is the city, what kind of promo fares are we looking at from MIA-DUB? Just looking for a guess here. Thanks!

Considering the lower costs there compared to MIA, and their partnership with JetBlue, I'd say FLL is a more likely addition than MIA.

What do you think Aer Lingus’ newest US destination SHOULD be?

Come join the "Battle in Seattle" a Non-Stop SEA-DUB on EI would be awesome!

Could be EWR. Not very exciting considering service to JFK, but makes sense with UA partnership.

Are they cutting Chicago? Or was it just missed in terms of current N. American destinations?

I hate to be "that guy", but you left ORD off the map.

I reckon it will be from MIA, FLL, IAD, PHL or YUL . Do not see EWR as UA have that tied up

Hope it's IAD or BWI! Although I admit MIA might make more sense.

@ JR -- I wouldn't expect them too low given the general state of airfare. Maybe $800 roundtrip?

I remember reading opportunities lie with Atlanta, Charlotte, Washington, DC and Philly. So if East Coast, I'd vote for Philly

I would say Atlanta is their next destination

Is it certain this would be ex-DUB, or might this be an SNN flight?

You guys are all crazy. Everyone knows they are going to launch new service to RDU.

I know; but, I'm not at liberty to say.

Some are hot, some are warm, and some are very cold.

We should all be hoping for YUL. I have 2973 reasons why that's preferred =)

I would love to see CLT, but realistically I will say DFW.

I'm hoping for IAD but realistically I'd agree with MIA/FLL

I expect IAD, given it is one of only three airports listed for domestic UA codeshares that can earn GC points. So they feed the domestic flights, and the domestic flights feed the international connection.

Would be to FLL. United has more connections from there, and they are also good partners with Jetblue that has a huge bass at FLL.

Who Cares? They never open business award seats SFO-DUB.

It's going to be Miami.

MIA would make way more sense than any other airport.

FLL won't be happening.

Looks like they failed as a low quality carrier.

Will they rejoin oneworld or they'll forever pay for the strategic mistake of leaving the alliance? Good luck competing against Star, oneworld and SkyTeam's feed and frequencies as a standalone carrier.
