Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: I seem to recall that the last day Mr. Jacobs appeared before the committee, he said that at the Christmas period DAA would get very close to the 32 million cap. Who will be the fall guy? Will it be the incidental charter flights? Will it be Ryanair? Will it be Aer Lingus? Who is DAA in talks with, cautioning them about their flights?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: There are airlines selling bargain basement airfares out of Dublin Airport and other Irish airports. Parking charges at Dublin Airport far exceed any city centre car park at the moment. They are €40 per day in the short-term car park - that is a capped price - and €16.50 per day in the express red and €14 per day in the holiday blue car parks. From a consumer point of...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)
