Christmas travel hits 1.6m at Cork and Dublin Airports via IrishTimesBiz
In all, 706,000 passengers arrived over that time while 774,000 departed.
The Co Mayo gateway noted that 2023 was “off to a strong start” with Ryanair announcing 16 routes and 120 flights a week, its biggest schedule at the airport. The Ukraine war has cut the region’s already crowded airspace by 20 per cent, creating added pressures this year as airlines increase aircraft numbers over 2021.A Eurocontrol report published on New Year’s Eve said that while staffing and other bottlenecks that hit travel last year may be progressively solved, there is an increased risk of strikes.
“All of this means that 2023 is set to be the most challenging year for the network in terms of matching capacity with demand and keeping delays down,” said the report.
