Transport Minister Eamon Ryan has warned against 'flight shaming' people who travel home for Christmas from abroad. Up to 50,000 people are expected to make the trip back to Ireland by air for Christmas amid the continuing Covid-19 pandemic. Mr Ryan said the Government is not encouraging people to return to Ireland but does recognise some will have to travel. "The reality is there'll be far less people traveling and I think that's a good thing," he said. We don't want to see a big influx because we do have to manage this."
