Cork Airport shuts for runway rebuild — with the promise that it will reopen on time

The project will start on time, and will finish on time — that was the promise from Cork Airport bosses last night as it shut down for 10 weeks for the complete rebuild of its main runway.
“Airlines have flights scheduled to operate from Cork from November 22, aircraft and crew will have to be repositioned in advance, so we are confident that the runway will be ready on time,” airport spokesman Kevin Cullinane said.
