Ryanair 'highly likely' to close Cork and Shannon bases in winter; warns of cuts in Dublin

Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary wants the Government to immediately implement new EU travel guidelines

Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary has said it is “highly likely” that the airline will, indeed, close its bases at Cork and Shannon airports over the winter months, despite the Government updating its 'green list' of countries unaffected by quarantine restrictions.

It is also despite a final decision on the matter not due to be made by the airline until the end of this month.
