Fair enough. I still wonder though what would happen to US-SNN service in the absence of a 50/50 rule, and whether AA would be running BOS-SNN it in the absence of ORD-DUB. I guess we'll see if SNN service really drops to the 25% minimum under the new treaty and whether that is due to increased DUB traffic or decreased SNN flights. I personally would LOVE BOS-DUB (on an AA 757 with free "FC" upgrade) since DUB is a very convenient and cheap jumping off point for Europe while continental connections from SNN are poor at best.
