My question follows on from previous questions. If passenger numbers are back to 50% and the airlines are back, why will it take to 2025, which is a further four years, to get back to 100%? Dublin Airport can be an unpleasant experience because of the sheer volume of people going through it. In light of such large passenger numbers, would the DAA and Shannon Airport consider having more flights going through Shannon so as to reduce that difficulty? It could be a reciprocal arrangement. Is there scope for that type of discussion?
