Dear Early Ireland Participants, I am sure that you have heard on the news about the closures of the Dublin airport over the weekend due to the Iceland volcanic ash plume. We have been monitoring the situation continuously over the weekend. This morning, the Dublin airport reopened, as strong winds are blowing the cloud out of UK airspace. For those of you traveling with the CCSA group, our transatlantic flight on Delta out of Atlanta, to which all of you are connecting, is showing on the Delta website as departing as scheduled this evening. Consequently, you should all report to your respective airports at the time designated in your final letter/email from us. Please make every effort to be on time, even early if possible. CCSA staff are in the office, ready to answer phone calls and monitoring the situation. Should you experience difficulty reaching the airport, please call the CCSA office number at 1-800-319-6015, as we have contact information for faculty at the airport. To quote the Irish blessing, may the wind be always at your back, blowing the ash far away. Maggie Monteverde |
