Racedo, in that million don't forget to allow for the fact that the outbound 'locals' won't be buying their pints here.
True but loss of tax for 500,000 extra passengers going out is offset by 3 pints for 500,000 coming in..............no incoming tax.
Reckon on a weekend away excluding flight then likely to spend €400 including hotel, food and drink, taxis, sightseeing and keeping SWMBO away from shopping frenzy........reckon a minimum 75% multiplier makes it worth £1000 to local economy plus will create some jobs which may pay some tax or take someone off dole.
Locals tend not to stay in hotels etc..........
