I didn’t see this one coming:

Newsday is reporting that Ryanair is in talks with officials at Long Island-MacArthur Airport in Islip about launching flights to Dublin in the spring.  I think this article is a tad premature (an annual conference on new airline routes just wrapped up, and I’m guessing they must’ve met there), as Ryanair’s CEO has already said that Ryanair won’t fly trans-Atlantic flights under the Ryanair name.
