Absolutely great networking opportunity and of course we were only in the door for about five minutes before we started bumping in to former colleagues who were networking with other airlines and other companies. It is great to meet people that you haven’t seen in a while and make new connections as well.

We are really good at what we do in this industry and these Awards are the absolute Oscars, if you like, of the Irish aviation industry once a year.

I was delighted and the table was delighted. We were euphoric because there has been a lot of work going into this project and it has saved lives

(Winning these awards) endorses everything - all the hard work that you do today. It does motivate people, encourages them to progress even further. We have already posted (our win) on our social media tonight, so we are getting a lot of feedback
