- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Aviation Policy: Ryanair (30 Nov 2022)
Cathal Crowe: Okay. Given the favourable long haul taxation regime, Ryanair has in the past dabbled with the idea of going transatlantic. Is this in the medium-term or long-term plans, or is it totally off the agenda?

Cathal Crowe: In terms of inward tourism, Germany accounts for the third highest number of tourists coming to Ireland, at 8%. As Europe's largest and most developed economy, I believe there could be more routes to and from Germany. Does Ryanair have a strategy to get more Germans over to the Wild Atlantic Way?
