Today, An Board Pleanala has upheld the granting of planning by Clare County Council for Harbour Flights Harbour Ltd to development their sea plane base in Mountshannon, County Clare on Lough Derg. This will be the first commercial sea plane base, to have been granted planning, not only in Ireland, but in Europe.
In September of this year, Harbour Flights ran some very successful Sea Plane trials in Cobh (Article Here) and now look forward to Tuesday November 30th as being the day that An Board Pleanala announce their decision on whether or not the company will be permitted to operate out of Cobh. No doubt a positive decision from An Board Pleanala will be welcomed as a massive boost for Cobh with regular flights operating in and out of the town.
Adam Cronin, local business man and owner of Cronin Millar Consulting Engineers, based in Cobh is one of the directors of Harbour Flights Ireland. He is delighted that this project will promote Cobh as a tourist destination and be an added attraction to the town. Adam is delighted with the support shown by businesses and residents and is hopeful that Harbour Fights Ireland will be operational in Cobh by spring of next year.
