Ryanair Calls for Dublin Airport Traffic Cap to be Abolished by Irish Government

Ryanair urges the Dáil Transport Committee to abolish Dublin Airport's 32m passenger cap, citing outdated road traffic concerns and the potential for significant growth with a second runway. The airline argues that the cap is unlawful and that "nimbies" should not hinder national airport infrastructure. Ryanair's CEO, Michael O'Leary, calls for the cap to be scrapped "as soon as possible" to allow for increased traffic, tourism, and jobs growth.
