We teamed up with Visit Cork and Cork Airport in Germany this week, to promote direct flights and ease of access from Frankfurt to Cork with Lufthansa to key German travel professionals and journalists.   Six tourism companies from Cork joined us in Lufthansa Group Hangar One at Frankfurt Airport, along with Minister of State at the Department of Transport, Jerry Buttimer TD. Guests enjoyed some delicious Cork produce, together with a special HYDE IRISH WHISKEY tasting experience and entertainment by Angela Newman from Hysterical Histories Cork.   This event was a great platform for our industry partners to promote Cork’s strong accommodation offering along with the many things to see and do in Cork city and county. Our aim is to inspire potential holidaymakers to choose Ireland and sustainably support local economies and communities by driving bookings on flights to regional airports like Cork Airport.
