DAA Statement Re Ryanair and Marrakech

The Dublin Airport Authority (DAA) regrets that it is not in a position to accept Ryanair’s application to avail of Dublin Airport’s New Route Incentive Scheme for a proposed seasonal service to Marrakech in Morocco. This is because Ryanair has not agreed to comply with the clear and simple conditions attaching to the scheme.

The DAA would also like to stress that no amount of misinformation or hectoring by Ryanair will circumvent these clear and simple conditions, nor cause the DAA to discriminate illegally in favour of Ryanair and to the detriment of other airlines at Dublin Airport.
