An issue was brought to my attention by a businessman in Limerick, namely, an Aer Lingus advertisement in a local newspaper last week concerning flights between Shannon Airport and America and onward connecting flights. The advertisement referred to Hallowe'en, but when people went to make bookings they could not do so beyond 5 September because there are no connecting flights within the United States after that date. It is a serious issue for business people who are trying to go about their business and need onward connecting flights. The only other option is to fly to Heathrow Airport to avail of onward connecting flights.
