Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Recent Issues Concerning Aer Lingus Flight Booking and Check-in Services: Discussion

Mr. Peter O'Neill:

I am happy to comment on the current status with the DAA. As we have gone through the summer and it got over its very public security issues, the operation has stabilised quite significantly. I would like to acknowledge publicly the support from the DAA on 10 September because we had fantastic support from its teams on the ground in helping us manage the situation as it developed.

Again, we are in constant dialogue with the DAA. There are the usual pressure points with a busy airport and the infrastructure. While we welcome the new runway coming online, there are congestion points around piers and taxiways. That is an ongoing dialogue with the DAA around how we maximise that and ensure Dublin remains competitive and functioning for all the users.
