Delays at Dublin Airport: Discussion

Mr. Dalton Philips:

They are both knocking around 90%. Terminal 1 is at 95% and terminal 2 is at 85%; it depends on the day. I sit on a council with the CEOs of all the other airports. When I talked to them, they said that 75% of our budget was chunky. In February, as oil prices spiked, Ukraine kicked off and the cost of living was going through the roof, we were looking into the summer and we were deeply concerned. We should not have got rid of that number of people. If I knew then what I know now, I would have made a different decision.
