The affected fixtures include Leinster’s tie with La Rochelle in January as well as away matches in Bristol and Cardiff. Against this backdrop in May, the IAA for the first time introduced a 14.4 million seat capacity limit at the airport for the winter 2024 season, from October 2024 to March 2025. It means additional winter slots – typically granted to airlines for the period around Christmas due to the demand for travel during the season – will not be available this year.
