Mr. Walsh referred to Shannon Airport, but I refer, in particular, to transatlantic routes which are very important to the mid-west in terms of business and tourism. As mentioned, the summer flights to Boston and New York are profitable. It is a year-round service. What commitment would Mr. Walsh give on operating year-round transatlantic flights from Shannon Airport?
