In the context of that piece Ms Embleton spoke about, Emerald Airlines has taken over the Aer Lingus regional flights. Can she comment on its relationship with the regional airports, not just Cork? Regarding Cork Airport, services to Lisbon, Nice, Barcelona, Paris, Brussels and Geneva have ceased. The winter preparedness or winter planning is a little bare, from what I can see from a Cork perspective and perhaps from the perspective of others. I am concerned about the winter plans of Aer Lingus for our regional airports. The piece regarding Emerald Airlines, which we have not mentioned, is important as well.
