- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Situation at Dublin Airport: Discussion (26 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: The problem is that there are 270 and Sky Handling Partners can process 350. Does that mean only 60 bags per day can be pulled back? Dividing 2,897 by 60 leaves a serious number of days.
