Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Mr. Paul Brandon:

On the economic impact, we have been significantly impacted. About 90% of our revenue is based on air traffic levels, of which the majority is based on the transatlantic route.

At the three State airports, traffic has reduced by about 70% compared with what it should be, which is a significant impact.
