Ryanair: Cork’s high costs are ‘hugely negative’

RYANAIR said Cork Airport is one of the most expensive airports of its kind in Europe and it has no plans for expansion there.

The low cost airline said the high costs, coupled with the Government’s €10 air travel tax, means it has no plans to bring any new routes to the airport.

Ryanair’s director of route development, Ken O’Toole said these two factors are having a “hugely negative” impact on the airport.
