COMMENT: Dublin Airport remains in splendid isolation

Rows and debates over development at the airport are only just beginning, writes Fearghal O'Connor

Dublin Airport is the fastest-growing airport in Europe

The war of words between DAA (formerly the Dublin Airport Authority) and pilots union IALPA over planned developments at Terminal 2 is likely just a sign of things to come.

The DAA is currently proposing to build a passenger transfer facility at the terminal, but IALPA has said that aspects of the plan do not “adequately protect staff and passenger safety”, according to a report byBarry J Whyte in last week’sSunday Business Post.
