Daa declines to appeal decision blocking car park purchase near Dublin Airport

The Daa said Dublin Airport's car parks 'are fully sold out this Easter weekend'.

The Daa has admitted defeat and said it will not be appealing the decision from the consumer watchdog blocking its purchase of a car park near Dublin Airport, as the process “would take years” and passengers “cannot wait that long”.

Easter weekend is set to be a busy one at Dublin Airport with all car parks sold out. Daa, which runs Dublin and Cork airports, said there is an “urgent need” to alleviate the strain already being placed on the facilities at Dublin Airport.
