Management at the airport say the summer is set to the busiest in three years and say seat capacity has increased by 101 per cent this month compared to April 2019.
8 airlines are offering 40 routes from the airport this summer and passengers travelling from Cork are advised to arrive at between 90 minutes and two hours before their flight is due to board.
Acting Managing Director at Cork Airport, Roy O’Driscoll says they are delighted that the Easter break will see such huge passenger numbers travelling to and from Cork Airport:
"The Easter break passenger figures are a strong testament to the tremendous work being done at Cork Airport to recover route connectivity. With the return of customer confidence in international air travel, it has been a very positive start to 2022 in which Cork Airport expects to welcome over 2 million passengers. This represents a 77% recovery on 2019 and we are committed to continuing this recovery throughout 2022 and beyond.”
