Kerry Airport to get almost €1.5m funding
Kerry Airport is in line for nearly €1.5m in funding under the Regional Airports Programme 2021-2025.
All five regional airports in the country will share a total of €21,100,051 released under the scheme.
Kerry Airport will get €1,434,355 to put towards vital safety operations like air traffic control, fire services and security.
The CEO of Kerry Airport, John Mulhern, welcomed the funding.
“We are grateful to Minister Naughton, the Department of Transport and Kerry’s two Government TDs, Minister Norma Foley and Deputy Brendan Griffin for their continued support," he said.
"The funding will help to ensure that Kerry Airport remains compliant with regulatory requirements in key areas, such as air traffic control, fire services and security.”
Funding this year for airports will total over €37 million building on the €161 million provided in unprecedented aviation supports during 2021.
“I welcome this funding which will deliver further vital financial supports to Kerry Airport with a particular focus on safety, security operations and air traffic control," Minister Foley said.
"This funding reinforces the importance and value that Government places on the vital role of our regional airports and how connectivity directly supports tourism and enterprise in Kerry.”
