Are you querying the damage caused to the EI A320s by the birdstrikes or the continuing damage to the reputation of Cork Airport caused by diversions and lack of CAT2 in low viz? Either way, pretty bad, eh!?
EI-DEA was parked up at Cork for nearly a week up to some time last weekend when she evenutally left. Aeroplanes parked up for nearly a week dont make money? Damage to EI-DEL must have been somewhat less as she is now gone.
On the positive side the new bit to the short term car park is in use with the new exit points now open for business. This extended facility will come in handy if come next summer the new terminal is still not ready!!!
The priorities are just right? No room for aeroplanes to park overnight but keep packin' the cars in at all costs. Why not put another 50 cents charge on the Car Park at the same time?
Who needs air traffic and passengers to make money?
However, maybe I am being just a tad too cynical now? There really is some good news to celebrate! Jet2 are at last coming to us at Cork as their new flight from Newcastle begins tomorrow.
Let us wish Jet2 lots of success with their new NCL-ORK services. Are the Jet2 737s CAT2? Will be needed!
