ACA condemns Government failure on Heathrow

The Atlantic Connectivity Alliance has today expressed disappointment over the ending of the Shannon-Heathrow services but pledged to give its full support to making the City Jet Paris service a success.

Commenting on the final day of Shannon Heathrow services after 50 operating years, ACA spokesperson and chairman of the Shannon branch of the Irish Hotels Federation Mr Michael Vaughan said Government and the Department of Transport were both guilty of ambivalence and incompetence in the handling of the Shannon-Heathrow saga and this, ultimately, led to its downfall.
