Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary has said he is “very concerned” that Dublin Airport may not have enough security staff for the Christmas period.
He made the comments during an appearance before the Oireachtas transport committee on Wednesday. “We are concerned that there may be security shortages and staffing shortages this Christmas, and if they don’t recruit now in significant numbers that we may short again at Easter,” the Ryanair Group chief executive said.
“Now they tell us that they’re hiring and they’re recruiting. They’re talking about putting in 3D scanners in the spring, but they’re talking actually about taking out existing lanes to put in 3D scanners which will reduce security capacity at Dublin Airport.
