Aa To Ireland

I like the idea but 7 hours on a 757? Yuck! If we are going to do it do it right.

Didnt one of those fly by nighters do 757 service a few years back? Sceptre travel was organizing the charters I believe. My parents flew it and they said it was aweful. They said no matter how much it costs they would take Aer Lingus's wide bodies before they did that again.

I think the Shannon stopover was eliminated a few years back. The area around Shannon has since become highly industrialized so that generates enough traffic and jobs.

CAL seems to be quite successful running 757s over the pond and apparently the Boston-Manchester route was a good performer this past summer.

Well, the BOS-MAN 757 service, I think, was sold as all coach. Don't know if thats doing it right, but its doing it differently than before

BOS-MAN service was apparently successful enough that when it returns for next summer, it will be year round.
