Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (resumed)
Mr. Eddie Wilson:
The big difference is that the airports in Ireland are empty and that they are gradually recovering in the rest of Europe. China has recovered to almost 70% now. We have put in place all the protocols from the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control through EASA. We need to get back to reconnecting this island. If we do not connect, we will wither.
