Passenger numbers to drop at Cork Airport?
Filed Under (cork airport) by admin on 15-01-2009
The DAA (Dublin Airport Authority) has predicted a drop of between three and four percent in passenger numbers for the coming year at Cork Airport, Dublin Airport and Shannon Airport.
Passenger numbers at all three airports have dropped in the last three months. There was a big drop in numbers at Shannon Airport in 2008 due to the withdrawal of the Aer Lingus Heathrow service. DAA are reporting a likely drop in traffic in 2008 in comparison to the previous year once all figures are in.
An internal review is set to place to analyze the effects lower passenger numbers may have in the coming year. The DAA say the planned finish date for terminal 2 at Dublin Airport will not be affected. Despite the current drop in passenger numbers, the DAA still believe the future to be bright for the airline industry.
