Aviation is revealing its defining edge this week. Airlines are stretching what’s possible, from Ryanair’s bigger cabin baggage boosting its budget dominance to Boeing cementing its Belfast footprint. Dublin Airport’s passenger cap threatens transatlantic ambitions just as Ireland’s drone revolution gains urgency, with Vodafone pushing mobile-powered deliveries into new territory. Even as sustainable fuel transitions stall, Ryanair remains Europe’s CO2 efficiency leader. 

Each move signals a sector unafraid to evolve. Growth now depends on daring decisions that create not only competitive advantage but a future fit to fly.
