Ryanair Calls On Transport Min. Ryan Again To “Do Something” To Stop Drone Closures At Dublin Airport

Dublin Airport has closed again today (Tues, 21 Feb) for the 5th time in 4 weeks due to drone disruptions, causing multiple delays and disrupting/delaying hundreds of passengers.

Ryanair calls on Transport Min. Eamon Ryan to do something – anything – to protect Ireland’s main airport from these drone disruptions. Irish air travellers are entitled to expect the Min. for Transport to take action and yet again Min. Ryan has failed to meet even these modest expectations.

A Ryanair spokesperson said:

It is unacceptable that more Ryanair flights and hundreds of passengers have again suffered disruptions and delays as Dublin Airport closed for a 5th time in 4 weeks due to Transport Min. Eamon Ryan’s failure to take any action to prevent drone disruptions at Dublin Airport. As always Min Ryan promises “stronger enforcement measures” but delivers nothing.

Min. Ryan should explain why other EU Airports have effective drone prevention measures in place but Dublin keeps being disrupted while he is asleep on the job. Sadly, our Transport Min. is all talk and no action when it comes to drone disruptions.”
