Seeing how Knock is pretty close to Beautiful County Galway and Mayo.
Plus Galway city and all it has to offer.
Is there any chance of a route To Doncaster Sheffield. Links air already serve Belfast City.
Also are there flights from Knock to Dublin.
Id like to See Aer Lingus Regional or Links air Do Dsa
After all they used to fly from Leeds to Knock.
Yorkshire would benefit from that link and in return with the right Marketing counties Mayo and Galway would from the Tourist traffic.
Ireland is such a beautiful place (im Half English half welsh and an Irish Great Grandmother).
So perhaps my Celtic connection is making me wonder.
But even better would be to restore to knock the Service to Conemara Airport. Now I don't know how many years since it stopped but I read there used to be one.
I don't know how long the flying tine in an Islander would be to Knock. But it would have to be a oso.
And the boost that would give for the Aran islands in Tourism and Conemara and the south of county Galway. Especially since Galway airport is shut (will it ever reopen? Why did it close)
But id Aer Aran Islands could do Knock
I bet they'd make money
Now the question is. As a side point are there bigger aircraft such as the dornier 328 ot the Let 10 used by City wing which I think seat more.
Could they operate from Conemara? .
I read its 750m long .
But think of the connectivity it could bring.
Any thoughts guys?
