The former flag carrier’s controversial proposals have been criticised by local representatives, who say the move could undermine government plans to re-invigorate Clare’s international airport.
The Transport Minister has said that Aer Lingus is in commercial talks to secure a deal – which could actually increase in maintenance jobs at Shannon Airport.
However, local Councillor Gerry Flynn feels that plan would not be effective.
