Sir, – It is easy for Dublin airport to claim an increase in passenger numbers. Of the last four journeys I have taken out of the country, I have been forced to depart from Dublin Airport because Cork Airport does not fly to major European destinations such as Rome, Lisbon or Berlin during the winter months. They are scarce enough even during the summer months! It goes to prove once again that those beyond the Pale are left to fend for themselves. Why should Dublin claim the prize, and what did Cork do to be left out in the cold? – Yours, etc,
J O’DONOGHUE,
