It is ridiculous that we are forced to travel via Dublin resulting in considerable wasted time and expense!

A sorely missed connection for business and leisure travelers. Connectivity from Cork has been very slow to return post covid lockdowns.

Please reintroduce this valuable service ASAP. Having to travel to Dublin in all cases to access the South West of England is ridiculous. DAA stands for Dublin Always, Always !!!

This vital connection between Cork and Bristol should be reintroduced as soon as possible. It is unacceptable that people have to travel to Dublin to avail of this service to the South West of England. It would seem that in the DAA eyes …It’s Dublin first !!!!

I used to travel on the Bristol-Cork route frequently as my parents live in Cork, as well as relatives. Having to travel from Exeter to Dublin, and then get public transport down to Cork is such a pain (leaving early in the morning and not getting to Cork until the late afternoon - the day's gone! Even longer if where you're staying is not close to the bus or train station - may not get home until the evening), and even worse in reverse as the Exeter flight back is so early, just after 7am, so I (and many other people I'm sure) either have to overnight in Dublin or get an overnight bus. You end up losing a day, and you can't be spontaneous with visits. Bristol-Dublin is even more of a diversion than Exeter-Dublin for many of us in the South West. Equally it means it's so much harder for my parents to visit me, as I'm sure is the case for many others. While Exeter-Cork would be amazing, I understand that would be less likely (unless demand?), and Bristol-Cork would still be brilliant - it is such a missed route and the lack of it is cutting off the South West and Wales from the Southern regions of Ireland, and cutting off people from family, friends, loved ones, work, and experiences. When I used to travel from Bristol to Cork, the flights were generally full, and it was reinstated before Stobart collapsed so clearly it was seen as a valued route. Any time I want to travel directly to Cork Airport, I have to go to a very 'out of the way' airport (either having to spend loads on public transport tickets or fuel and parking charges, and hours traveling there) and use a different airline, when personally I would prefer to travel with Aer Lingus/Emerald Airlines if I had the choice. Or I have to get the ferry - an even longer route. It would be great to just have a more direct and speedier travel journey option. Please bring back this route!

The flights need to come back online a massive loss to tourism on both sides. It was a great route to access both England and wales
