Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
Proposed Sale of Aer Lingus: (Resumed) Aer Lingus and Stobart Air
5:00 pm
Mr. Stephen Kavanagh:
Aer Lingus's plan for Shannon Airport is to maintain existing operations. We do not see a significant growth opportunity at Shannon Airport in maintaining the status quo. We have launched a number of leisure routes from the airport which complement the direct service to Heathrow Airport. Thus far, the expansion of transatlantic services has delivered on expectations.
