DB Schenker announcement a ‘huge boost’ for region (Shannon Chamber) :cool: The announcement of a major expansion by German-owned logistics company, DB Schenker involving a doubling of its facilities and workforce at Shannon Free Zone is highly significant for the Shannon Region, according to Shannon Chamber. DB Schenker is to invest €10 million in the provision of an additional 55,000 sq ft plant due for completion by late 2020. The expansion will more than double its existing capacity and lead to an increase in the workforce to around 100 people, effectively doubling its existing staff numbers. The planned expansion will incorporate a high-bay temperature-controlled warehouse and 15,000 sq ft of offices, Ray Hennessy, CEO of DB Schenker Ireland said.

Medical emergency and weather diversions at Shannon (Clare Herald)Brussels Airlines flight SN-552 was travelling from Toronto, Canada to Brussels in Belgium when the crew declared a medical emergency at around 4.15am. Later, a FlyBe flight from Manchester to Ireland West Airport in Knock diverted to Shannon because it was unable to land due to poor visibility. A Ryanair flight form Liverpool to Knock was also forced to divert to Shannon because of low visibility. Passengers from both flights were transported by bus to Knock Airport. Earlier, the Shannon based Irish Coast Guard helicopter was unable to land at University Hospital Galway because of poor visibility in the area. The crew of Rescue 115 was tasked to undertake the medical evacuation mission from Inishboffin Island. The crew decided to fly to Shannon Airport where National Ambulance Service paramedics were waiting to transport the patient to University Hospital Limerick.
