Via facebook:

Ulster have travelled to Dublin in the hope of securing a flight which will allow them to play their Heineken Cup game against Bath tomorrow.

So if Ulster had a charter standing by at Aldergrove (according to Bath site), and are away to Dublin in the hope of securing a flight, they must be pretty damn sure the airport is not going to open...

ali , if they could not get it open this morning there is no hope of it opening tonight looking at weather radar

At least they had a plan if Aldergrove stayed shut, there were 2 Ryanair flights this afternoon and tonight from Dublin.

An Air Southwest Flight departed Dublin at 17:32 for Bristol.

Looked up their website which shows them normally flying out of Dublin to Newquay and Plymouth.

Is this an UR charter?

Air Southwest flight SZ 9123 from Dublin Landed at Bristol Airport at 18:35.

Working assumption that team has landed in Bristol?
