The DAA has been to my mind too quiet to date on this matter. Why? Well, one reason for that is for every diversion from Cork to either Dublin or to the airport in the Midwest the DAA have still collected on the landing fees etc so at a corporate level they have not lost out at all and if in the future any potential Cork passengers chose instead the drive up along to M8 to connect with flights from Dublin the DAA still wins.
No disrespect Tom where do you expect them to divert, lets see WAT can handle A320 and B738... and sure NOC airport will reopen to take diversions. KIR got a few regional from ORK on Friday. Mabye Belfast and Derry would be good places to divert. I am not defending the DAA but there wasn't many options or mabye they could of diverted further afeild as not to pay DAA diversion charges.
