Re Markheg post
My latest understanding is that the new tower will not be built, and that the old terminal would require a change in planning permission to operate for Ryanair (but I suspect that is a red herring).
Doubt that the structure down by TNT is in fact a "hanger". Suspect the photographer may be using a bit of license, as it's more likely to be additional floorspace for TNT, DHL or one of the forwarders. The proposed "cargo village" isn't likely to be delivered for a few years and the cargo operators need space now!
Finally, it would seem that the Cork Airport Great Southern Hotel is one of only 3 or 4 in the GSH Group that are actually profitable, so they must be doing a brisk enough trade...
