Government is reneging on its promise to airport and passengers

WHEN Ryanair makes a threat, it carries it out. Earlier this week it promised to axe some of its nine routes out of Cork Airport if charges went up, and within hours the low-budget airline delivered on its threat.

It announced on Wednesday that three of its seven flights to Liverpool were to go.

It’s a pity the Government is not as determined as Ryanair when it comes to taking action.
