Norwegian to continue Dublin to US flights using Boeing's Dreamliner

Norwegian Airlines has said it will replace the grounded Boeing 737 MAX airplane with a different model to operate US flights from Dublin Airport in the aftermath of the Ethiopian Airlines disaster at the weekend.

The European Union Aviation Safety Agency, along with a number of national aviation authorities, suspended all operations performed by Boeing 737 MAX 8 planes, after one such model crashed within minutes of take-off from in Addis Ababa on Sunday, killing 157 people on board including Clare father-of-two Micheál Ryan.
