Yeah we lived in a small town in the Midlands in England.
My dad had an adventure driving on many of those "roads"

Lincoln MAP is larger runway than Omaha. Lincoln landing, Space shuttle backup.too small for a plane that size
English and Scottish roads are like runways compared to Ireland’s.Yeah we lived in a small town in the Midlands in England.

Didn’t know that. Maybe they didn’t have the ground maintenance capabilities for an overseas flightLincoln MAP is larger runway than Omaha. Lincoln landing, Space shuttle backup.
It’ll most likely be nonstop since they brought the plane in from Chicago. I flew to Dublin direct from Chicago a few years ago and the flight was just over 6 hours. From Omaha it’ll probably be 7 1/2 hours. They’re flying Aer Lingus and they’re a top notch airline

The joint use civilian/military Lincoln Airport/Lincoln Air National Guard Base in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA was designated as an alternate landing site for its 12,900 ft (3,932 m) long main runway. Including 1000 ft over-runs on each end, the runway totaled almost 15,000 ft in length. The site also had low air traffic, both commercial and military.[32][33][34] No space shuttle landing ever occurred there
When we went to Ireland a few years back we flew American from Omaha to Chicago, Chicago to Dublin. The Chicago to Dublin Flight was less then 7 hours. On the same trip we went to London and then flew home from London to Chicago and that was 7 1/2 hours.I have no doubt it's a direct flight. I'm guessing Aer Lingus isn't a regular at Eppley -- and there probably are not direct flights from OMA to Dublin available normally. But this is an exception.
Online, it suggests the flight time from Omaha to Dublin on a typical commercial jet is 8 1/2 hours.
https://www.aerlingus.com/en-us/flights-from-chicago-to-dublin ... "The total flight time from Chicago to Dublin is 7 hours and 25 minutes. The total distance is 3671 miles; 5908 km."
I'll be on a direct flight from Austin to Amsterdam exactly two weeks from now. It's 9 hours and 15 minutes.
That's why. Thanks.A couple months ago, it was announced the long runway at LNK is likely to cease existence. It's in bad enough shape it would need to be completely rebuilt. And there's not anyone willing to pay for that expense. The FAA would typically handle the bulk of it -- but they won't invest in a runway that sits empty.
The Lincoln airport is just dying. They lost Delta around the start of the year and are down to one regular airline providing service.
