Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA
1:10 pm
Mr. Kenny Jacobs:
Ultimately, this is what we want. We want to have the flexibility to meet the needs of the country. This means moving off a specific passenger number. Airlines and airports all speak about passenger numbers because it is the competitive league table for where they sit in terms of size. It would be better to move off it as a way of judging and measuring the size of an airport. It is not how we want to have it. We want to be able to operate to the number that matches supply and demand. This would be great for jobs and the economy.
