The Transport Minister insists he won't allow Dublin Airport to grow at the expense of Shannon. The Dublin facility recorded its busiest ever June last month with a total of 3.5 million passengers passing through its gates. Shannon meanwhile has seen a 7% increase in passenger numbers from January to June compared to the same period in 2024.
