Air tax

I see that an oppositon TD had the neck to ask the Minister to grant Shannon an exemption from the tax. This would put Cork, Kerry and Galway at an immediate disadvantage.

I accept that it reduces yields but I'm not sure if it's such a critical factor when people decide where to travel.

Having said that the best of luck to airlnes in their efforts to get the Government to change their mind. However they'd get more support if they hadn't so many stealth charges.
