VISITORS
On its first & second visits this evening was Ryanair B738 EI-EFW (35018), which was only delivered to Dublin yesterday.
FLEET NEWS
Ryanair B738 EI-EFY (35020) was delivered to Dublin today.
TAP A320 CS-TNT (4095) was delivered to Lisbon yesterday.
ROUTE NEWS
E-Fly. The chances of seeing this carrier operating regular services to Gatwick (see roundup for 24/10) seem to have diminished as E-Fly has just announced that it is dropping its scheduled service to Catania due to low demand & will now just undertake ACMI & ad-hoc charter work.
