Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

National Aviation Policy: Dublin Airport Authority

Mr. Kenny Jacobs:

I will answer to what he said. He is a very important customer who runs a great business. I think it is the best low-cost airline globally. Specifically on the tunnel, and I will ask Mr. Harrison to give the Deputy more detail, we think it is necessary. The regulator insists that the tunnel is necessary from a safety point of view and that is very important. We have got other airline customers that are in favour of the tunnel because it will bring efficiency to their operation. We listen to all customers. Ryanair is our biggest customer. We said the tunnel could cost up to €200 million in the context of a €1.9 billion capital programme. I will ask Mr. Harrison to add more colour to that.
