The incentive schemes for the development of new routes at the three State airports, including Dublin and Shannon, are a day to day matter for Aer Rianta. Details of the new route support schemes for 2004 in Dublin and Shannon airports are available on the Aer Rianta website at www.aer-rianta.ie. Operators on any new routes which commence operations during the period 1 January 2004 to 31 December 2004 and which meet the qualifying criteria listed by Aer Rianta in the route support documentation are entitled to such support.
