Ryanair says its confident the Junior Transport Minister “will do nothing about” its demands around the Dublin Airport Passenger cap.
The airline has repeated its call for the Government to step in and scrap the 32 million passenger limit.
Cork Airport may benefit from the cap as the DAA is actively encouraging airlines operating routes out of Dublin to base themselves out of Cork
Junior Minister James Lawless said he’ll examine all of Ryanair’s proposals, as well as other stakeholders like Aer Lingus.
Chief Executive of Ryanair, Michael O’Leary is unhappy the airline can’t secure extra slots at Dublin Airport in the coming months
"No, we didn't have a productive meeting. what was interesting is we sent a letter into the Transport Minister Ryan on Monday, we drafted up a letter of direction from him to the Irish Aviation Authority to issue additional slots this winter and next summer. he can do that while the DAA apply for the cap to be scrapped"
