It is a remarkable achievement for human beings.

And I think most of us

despite the fact that we like to complain about air travel, we still get kind of a thrill out of it.

And that's why the airport shopping experience is such a rewarding and enriching thing for the airports themselves.

And it's almost like we think when we see the Toblerones that, oh, gee, I can't get them anywhere else in the world except

to this airport.

You're in Tesco.

They're in Don's.

They're in my local shop.

It is.

Conor, thanks so much.

I'm looking forward to it too.

Hi, how are you, Aideen?

Well, I suppose it is, but you have to take what they say at face value.

And if they say it's as a result of essential maintenance, it's as a result of essential maintenance.

I mean, that kind of thing is routine.

I suspect that the reason why it attracted so much attention this year as opposed to maybe another year is because of these fears around what might happen in the weeks and months ahead as a result of jet fuel supply issues.

I would think that, you know, they have only cancelled, I think,

a very, very small percentage of their flights over the course of the months ahead.

And those cancellations will only impact a very, very small number of people.
