Never heard such nonsense before so seeking some wisdom? Thanks
Would imagine they don't think DUB/LGW will be operating by then. And it probably won't be. DUB/LHR 7.30 almost certainly will be.
They're a total mess at the moment, no thanks to the government, who don't seem to care one whit for people in aviation or tourism whose jobs may well go even now, close and all as we are to the end of the pandemic.
At least you have some clarification. Both my current booked flights are before yours, are no longer on sale and I've heard nothing!
