Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

National Aviation Policy: Ryanair

Mr. Eddie Wilson:

The map we showed on our second slide showed there are 230 airports. If Shannon is a base it will open connections with those 230 airports potentially. If we had a framework with a low-cost deal or a national aviation policy it would mean the people in Dublin who do the route planning would know with certainty that the cost base would be set for a number of years. It would give more certainty. In Ryanair we simply call it joining the dots. That is all we do in any of the bases or airports. It is about long-term cost certainty, the track record, what works and what does not work. Then we just add it.
