Facebook forum on airport shut down

An online forum highlighting issues regarding the future of Cork Airport has been shut following comments by airport management this week.

The ‘Save Cork Airport’ Facebook page disappeared from the social media site on Wednesday after Cork Airport managing director Niall MacCarthy said it was “hugely unhelpful”.

“The dynamic around ‘Save Cork Airport’ is actually really unhelpful,” said Mr MacCarthy. “Save Cork Airport is not where it’s at. ‘Support Cork Airport’ is where it’s at.”
