Banning short haul flights

A ban on short-haul domestic flights has come into effect in France, in a bid to curb carbon emissions. The new rule means flights between cities where the same journey could be made by train within two-and-a-half hours are prohibited. One of the short haul routes we use here in Ireland is Dublin to Kerry. Alan Farrell, Fine Gael TD for Fingal and Liam Sinclair, An Rabharta Glas Councillor, Tallaght Central joined Kieran Cuddihy on the show.
