Surely the fact that 600 jobs from Element Six alone, are at risk in such a small region has to be given some serious consideration. This company, formerly De Beers Industrial Diamonds, has employed people in the Shannon area for the last 45 years. This is not to forget the other companies who have also sweated long hours to keep their business afloat in the Shannon area.
How often would they have used this airline route for their distribution services?
The company has been very successful over the years, has brought prosperity to the area and always looking to the future of expanding their Man Made Diamonds business. Now if an alternative is not found, what stress that is going to put on the companies finances.

The move follows the decision of the airline to end the daily route and switch it, instead, to Belfast!
Fine, the route may not be making the money the airline needs to cover the costs at this moment, but how much money has the Man Made Diamonds industry brought into the Shannon area for the airlines in the first place? Have they not heard of a cash forecast?
Ireland - Callan
