Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: I wish to raise a few points, the first of which is for Mr. Gray. We have heard the word "outlier" quite a lot over the past week. It is a term I seldom heard used before the aviation sector came before this committee. It means not sitting with others and somewhat disadvantaged. The figures I want to put to Mr. Gray are those for inbound air traffic for the first 19 days of this month. A...

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: I understand that when everything was being shut down, the previous Government rightly said that it is essential we have some international travel links. That was at the time when nothing was taking off. I think there was one day when only one or two passengers left Dublin. It was right to keep routes open but at that point did the previous Government work out any deal with Dublin Airport...

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: I am sorry to cut across Mr. Gray but our time is quite limited. I want to pick up on his assertion that the north runway will be to the benefit of Ireland and the regions, to quote his contribution of a few moments ago. I would again contend that given Dublin's 86% market share, the north runway would do the exact opposite of that. It would lead to more take offs and landings in Dublin....

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: I ask Ms Considine to respond to that question as well, please.

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: I thank Ms Considine, and my next question is on the fire service at Shannon Airport. I understand overtime is no longer being paid and that the fire service is now at minimum staffing levels. A certain cohort of staff is required to achieve a category seven fire cover status but Shannon and all other Irish airports strive to have category nine status in order that they can cater for Boeing...

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: I thank Ms Considine. If I have time I may ask some short supplementary questions. My last big question is on the July stimulus. I listened to Ms Considine's presentation at the beginning. The July stimulus announcement last week included the extension of the temporary wage subsidy scheme, the suspension of commercial rates until the autumn, capital funding for projects and so on. As...

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: That is no problem.

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (resumed) (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: I have a number of questions to pose to our guests. I will direct my first question to Mr. Doyle. We all understand that the industry is suffering from a shock. It is on its knees and I want to preface everything I say by recognising that. I represent County Clare and I live on a flight path for planes landing in and taking off from Shannon. I do not need Flightradar24 to tell me that...

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (resumed) (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: One had to be logged in and online in order to watch those videos. I was in the company of one employee shortly after she heard of the temporary lay-offs via a WhatsApp message she received from a colleague. That is not good enough and, despite of all the restrictions under which we are all living, there would have been better ways for that to have communicated that information from a human...

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Covid-19: Impact on Aviation (resumed) (28 Jul 2020)

Cathal Crowe: Did Mr. Doyle offer cabin crew an opportunity to relocate to Dublin and minibus up and down for a couple of weeks? Airlines have done that in the past. Did he offer them a plan B in that regard?
