Delays at Dublin Airport: Discussion
Mr. Dalton Philips:
It is philosophical. I would love Shannon Airport to have more traffic because that would be good for the economy. We do not dictate that, however, and neither does national aviation policy. We have a commercial mandate to develop traffic at Dublin Airport. That is what we are challenged to do. If another Irish airport can attract an airline such as Etihad Airways or Emirates, that will be fantastic, but those airlines choose to go to Dublin. Mr. Harrison may wish to add some colour on that.
