Aer Lingus boss: Government ‘must intervene’ to resolve Dublin Airport cap
Lynne Embleton says ‘something needs to change here’ as ‘serious harm’ being done
Government must intervene to resolve the passenger cap issue at Dublin Airport, the head of Aer Lingus has said.
Dublin Airport is currently subject to an annual cap of 32 million passengers, due to a planning condition relating to the building of Terminal 2.
In December the DAA, which operates the airport, applied to Fingal County Council to lift the cap to 40 million. However, a decision on the matter is not expected until 2025.
