ExpertFlyer is quoting the base fare only which is really rather unhelpful especially transatlantic where the fuel surcharges can be substantial.

By-the-way.... This is a totally fantastic business class fare as you probably realize. Spend your money wisely.... namely, consider DUB-LHR-PHX on BA rather than DUB-PHL-PHX on AA. Price is almost the same (LHR fees make it about 50 GBP more expensive) but I would be much happier in BA club world all the way to PHX than connecting in PHL onto domestic first for another 5 hours.
