Lithium-air is one technology that would easily enable transatlantic flights. Even lithium-sulfur/metal/etc (which are much nearer term and can be had in small batches now if you call around) you could get you transatlantic (Canada to Ireland) with a very efficient airframe and even with lithium-ion with a very efficient airframe if you hop over Canada, Greenland, and Iceland.
