Airport boss appeals to Government for aid
The South East Regional Airport in Waterford will close early in the new year, unless it receives State aid in the region of €800,000.
It cannot continue to provide the level of manpower and services which are required, airport boss Nicholas Fewer, told Transport Minister Séamus Brennan, last night. A meeting with the minister, as well as locally-based Environment Minister Martin Cullen, was continuing late last night in a last-ditch effort to save the regional airport.
