Dublin Airport Considers Business Jet Suspension Due to Passenger Cap Constraints
STRATEGIC MINERALS
Dublin Airport's operator, the DAA, is considering suspending business jet travel due to nearing its 32 million annual passenger cap, a move that could adversely impact foreign direct investment in Ireland. Business aviation groups have highlighted the significance of these flights for executives of FDI companies, prompting the DAA to explore options to preserve access while seeking to increase the passenger cap to 40 million. Any changes would require action from the Irish Aviation Authority amidst ongoing discussions about removing the cap entirely, which currently supports over €10 billion in economic value and 116,100 jobs.
