National Aviation Policy: Aer Lingus (Resumed)
Ms Lynne Embleton:
I do not see a second hub. In Ireland's best interest is a competitive large attractive hub in Dublin to enable the breadth of connectivity I believe Ireland needs. You have to ensure the Dublin hub is effective and able to support that breadth of destination. In parallel, I see point-to-point demand out of the other airports. We should be encouraging that, and where the opportunity is there, I would expect routes and aircraft to follow.
