Ryanair labels Dublin Airport night-time restriction order 'stupid' and 'idiotic'

The airline has called on Transport Minister Eamon Ryan to intervene and reverse the decision to reduce the number of flights between 11pm and 7am to 65 a night

Fingal Council Council has issued an enforcement order telling Dublin Airport to reduce the number of flights between 11pm to 7am to 65 a night within six weeks.

Ryanair has labelled demands by Fingal County Council for Dublin Airport to reduce night-time flights as “stupid" and "idiotic" calling for it to be reversed.

Earlier this week, Fingal Council Council issued an enforcement order telling the airport to reduce the number of flights between 11pm and 7am to 65 a night within six weeks.  It comes after the council ruled the airport was in breach of planning conditions for operating late-night flights.
