Management at Kerry Airport and Kerry Chamber of Commerce has called for clarity on the future of the Dublin-Kerry air route after claims by Ryanair that it was going to take it on were described as "premature and inaccurate".

The Public Service Obligation air route from Dublin to Farranfore had been operated by Stobart Air, which also carried out PSO flights from Dublin to Donegal.
