Also, Aer Lingus does not fly to any airport in the central part of the US. The closest airport served by the airline is Denver (and it's a new route there).

Another point that must be made is that, I would imagine, if a Dublin route is established, it would be no more than 3x weekly - and possibly seasonal.

Also, if I am not mistaken, the second BA flight is seasonal. Is it not? Either way, there is enough demand to warrant the addition of Dublin.

Where things could get interesting is when a route to Paris is discussed. Paris is the #1 non-served international destination out of AUS.

Appreciate the info and the details. Do you have that list handy to post here?
