"Note to Cork Airport and Belfast City Airport - He who lies with dogs end up with fleas."
No doubt we'd have to pay a service charge for the fleas !
There might be a certain amount of truth in Aer Lingus "getting back" at SNN, but the reality is that while SNN has the bigger airport, it is being viewed as 4th behind Dublin, Belfast and Cork in terms of catchment area. And commercially it makes sense for Aer Lingus to do this rather than reduce the capacity out of Cork or Dublin.
The only people in the SNN that I feel sorry for are those who didn't vote for FF or the PDs.
