    I thought that had been put out of its misery!
    Another runway at Dublin is all that's needed.

    Such absolute ****e.

    Leinster has one airport but that airport alone carries 5x the traffic of all the others put together. And the fact that they are proposing putting this airport on a motorway that's 1 hour from Dublin Airport.

    The money would be much better spent on improving surface transport infrastructure in the midlands and revitalising town centres to get people living in them rather than everyone living out in the countryside and driving into towns then complaining about the town being a ****hole yet there's no one living in it.

    Weston is also in Leinster.

    Weston doesn't have any scheduled passenger services (then again nowadays neither has Waterford or Sligo)

    Galway Airport (now closed) is 2 hours from Dublin Airport - motorway all the way. Why would anyone try to compete with Dublin Airport when other smaller airports have closed?
