The board of the Cork Airport Authority (CAA) are due to have a top level meeting with Minister for Transport, Martin Cullen, in Cork tomorrow, Tuesday. The meeting had been set to take place last Thursday in Minister Cullen's Waterford constituency but that arrangement was called off. Probably a wise move in the circumstances as it is unlikely that the board of the Dublin Airport Authority would be hauled down to Waterford for a meeting?
Let us hope there is progress.
Was seeing someone else off on Friday evening from Cork. Around 7 pm the main restaurant was closed so all the available tea/coffee & grub sales were being conducted from the Coffee Cuisine shop. The place was jammed with outbound flights to FR Gatwick, RE Edinburgh, EI Heathrow, WW Manchester & Birmingham, RE Dublin, EZY Gatwick and Ryanair Stansted and the queue for the coffee shop for service extended well back towards the main restaurant. It is a disgrace that obviously hungry passengers are not provided for with the full restaurant facility on such a busy night. Remember, this is the kind of rubbish service you are paying for in your airport taxes and charges. Come on, get the small things right first, otherwise pax will be lost.
