Govt ‘must help ensure permit for Cork-Boston flight’
The Irish govt must maintain diplomatic pressure to ensure the US DoT grants a full permit for a transatlantic service from Cork as trade unions in the aviation sector are likely to lobby hard against any such move, a Cork councillor has said. Fianna Fáil councillor Tom O’Driscoll said the decision by the US department to issue what is known as a Show Cause Order to Norwegian Air International to operate a Cork -Boston flight was a positive development towards starting the service, but much work remains to be done. Cllr O’Driscoll said that he fully expected both trade unions and rival airlines to make a strong push during a 3 week submission period to try and persuade the department not to issue a full permit. <br/>
