How to connect same signal pads in Package Editor in Eagle?
If you are using Version 6 or later, in the device editor, use the Append button.

In the connection screen, make your connections as normal. Then if you want more than one pad in the package to be connected to the same pin in the schematic, do the following steps.


Click on the connection to which you want to append a pin
Click on the pad to be appended
Click the append button


You should now see more than one pad name forming the connection. There is also a small symbol which looks like a trace connecting some pins (highlighted red). This indicates the type of appended connection.

If the blue line is present in the indicator, it says that they must be connected by a trace in the layout.

If you click on it, the blue line will go away. This now indicates that only one of the pins need be connected (you can connect more, but only one is needed).

In your case, you can use the latter option in a sort of "hacky" way. As you know that the pads are already electrically connected in the footprint, you can click the button to indicate that only one needs to be connected in the layout (as you know they are already connected anyway). This will remove the air wire that is annoying you.
