Dublin Airport has lodged a planning application asking for its current passenger cap to increase from 32 million passengers to 40 million.
Air-fares will “go through the roof” if the country does not increase the passenger cap at Dublin Airport, Ryanair has claimed.
“He hasn’t done anything with aviation for the last years and he’s going to do nothing about this either,” he said. “It seems crazy in the middle of a climate emergency that we’re proposing to increase the capacity of Dublin Airport by 25%,” he said.
