Aer Lingus never handled RYR at Shannon in the past. Swissport are their handler in Shannon.

Why not switch services SNN-ORK?

1. U.S. Preclearance
2. Established year-round market at Shannon until carriers concentrated on Dublin
3. Shannon's location meets market demand for western seaboard, unlike Cork

Bye bye Shannon?

Let's contain our excitement until we see what sort of service is proposed. We've seen too many false starts from Irish regional airports in recent years and the anti-Shannon sentiment on this forum...

Too simplistic!

I'm afraid that talk of SNN's and ORK's debt being assumed by the DAA cannot be compared. Let's not forget the enormous cash cow- Aer Rianta International, that originated and was based in Shannon...

Cork pax preference

Does CCR seriously believe that the road designation matters more than the journey time (in any event SNN/ORK is a National route and not a boreen)?
Passengers will opt for a 1.5 hr. journey over a...

Shannon Airport's initiative (for that's what this was) on acquiring a Pre-inspection facility was years in the planning and pre-dated Open Skies by a long way. Whereas it did require an act of the...

See multiple comments on this subject over the past couple of years on this thread- it arises every so often and the same old pros and cons are trotted out each time.

Wrong "bastards". The DAA doesn't impose the APD tax- only governments can levy taxes.
