Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Issues facing the Aviation Industry: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Lynne Embleton:

The Shannon staff are being given the opportunity to move to Dublin, if there are vacancies in Dublin that are triggered by offering voluntary redundancy to Dublin cabin crew as well. However, having fewer cabin crew and a smaller base in Shannon just makes the problem the inefficiency of the base. This is structural and based on the amount of flying, not the individuals involved. Fewer cabin crew in Shannon would not make sense. It would not be something that would be structurally sustainable for us.
