My Department authorises commercial air transport operations by third country operators, however it does not receive applications for authorisation from European Union operators or non-commercial operations, as such the information held would only represent a proportion of business aviation flights that landed or departed in the stated airports.

I have directed your question to the Irish Aviation Authority for direct reply. If the reply is not received within the next 10 days please do not hesitate to contact my office.
