Leeds Bradford: Aer Lingus Flight Status, Hub News & Discussion

[Severn]

Has anyone any experience of Are Lingus's transatlantic service on their new 321 Neo's?? I'm due to be heading back from Washington in January and the choices seem to be change at either Dublin, JFK, or Heathrow to get back to either LBA or MAN. Dublin is the cheapest option by a margin. Any thoughts anyone? TIA

Flew a 321NEO a couple of weeks ago from IAD-DUB and then an Emerald AT76 on to BRS.
Aircraft was quiet, comfortable and clean. Good IFE, and I always find Aer Lingus catering excellent no matter which class you sit in - puts flying BA to shame even though EI are supposed to be the “low-cost” arm.
DUB airport was busy, and I find it quite messy layout wise, however it was a very quick and easy journey through the airport and everything ran to time.
I would prefer DUB to LHR and especially JFK any day of the week!

Aer Lingus Reigonal ATR-76 EI-FAT made a return visit on this evenings Dublin flight. It still wears the nice old livery for anyone wondering.

Any landing is a good landing in my book!

It's good to know that the flight crew were straight on the issue and the pax in the back wouldn't have had a clue what happened.

Emerald schedule for S23 doesn't look right on the website, 3 outbounds from LBA and 2 inbounds on the same day. take it its a glitch?

 

[YorkshireLad]

The Dublin route is to increase back to 13X Weekly after many months at a reduced 11X frequency

 

[CM.]

I know we’ve all been criticizing Flybe for their cancellations however I can’t help but notice Aer Lingus are starting to follow their footsteps by canceling flights recently. The outbound afternoon BHD and this evenings BHD flights have been cancelled and another was cancelled the other night. And the weathers fine so that can’t be an excuse.

 

[A400]

And all their other routes are operating just the LBA ones that are cancelled today.

That's odd because although the LBA arrivals is showing the Belfast arrival and departure this evening as cancelled, it's reported elsewhere by one if our esteemed and knowledgeable members that an Aer Lingus from Belfast is at LBA but is now broken and has been towed to a remote stand to await fixing. If true, then a supposedly cancelled flight operated inbound, but the outbound cancellation has turned out to be correct,.if for different reasons.

Meanwhile, FR24 shows this afternoon's Belfast did operate so presumably it's that one that's now broken. Clearly, Emerald are having a bad day!

The ATR has gone tech tonight.

EI-GPN arrived on the EI3676 and never left

Thanks for the info as EI-GPN is at LBA tech as some have said. I guess on this occasion they can be forgiven. (Also sorry to hear about your loss Heather that you mentioned on the General thread)

Emerald Isolated - Gone Precisely Nowhere

The tech Emerald ATR72 was been towed along the delta taxiway towards Multiflight when we landed runway 14 this evening on Jet2 Boeing 737-300, G-GDFT operating the LS274 inbound from Alicante.

It was towed onto Delta taxiiway to carry out high powered engine runs, but then towed back. Still u/s.

ATR-76 EI-GZW positioned in from DUB 11:45 now heading to BHD. Probably covering yesterday’s cancellations. Good on them for helping those passengers out.

 

[752]

Flybe MAN cancelled this morn, so its not just LBA pax they're P1ss1ng off
