DAA had proposed the acquisition of QuickPark, a privately-owned car park near the airport, which would immediately add over 6,000 additional spaces for cars.

THE COMPETITION AND Consumer Protection Commission is to carry out an in-depth investigation into the proposed acquisition by Dublin Airport of a privately-owned car park near the site.

It follows a preliminary investigation and a number of third party submissions to the CCPC about the move. In recent weeks, there have been several reports of “unavailable” and “really expensive” car parking spaces at Dublin Airport. DAA has also suggested that passengers without a car park booking should consider alternative options to get to the airport such as a bus or taxi.It issued a further 300 taxi permits to and from the airport and proposed the acquisition of QuickPark, a privately-owned car park near the airport, which would immediately add over 6,000 additional spaces for cars.

The CCPC will investigate whether the potential positive effects of this acquisition, such as operational efficiency and extra revenue that DAA can reinvest in the airport, can offset any potential anticompetitive concerns, such as higher prices, decreased choice, and lower service quality.
