Back-in-profit Daa's 'full focus' on resourcing Dublin Airport

After cumulative losses of €387m during the first two years of the pandemic, the Daa group, which also operates Cork Airport, recorded a €98m profit in 2022 

Daa chief executive Kenny Jacobs said 2022 had been challenging for global aviation but Dublin Airport 'recovered well'.

Dublin Airport operator Daa has said its “full focus” is on making sure it is fully resourced in advance of a busy summer period, given the long waiting times experienced at certain points last year.

It comes as the UK’s biggest tour operator Jet2 said the demand for summer holidays is increasing, selling 7% more seats for this summer compared to last. The expected summer surge is also being seen by Easyjet, which recently raised its profit target for this year amid strong bookings.
