I live an hour and fifteen mins from killarney so I by the time I got to shannon I could be in dublin or london waiting for my onward flight any how.

I do appreciate your point but alot of people use kerry airport to fly home to their holiday homes for the weekend or work in london/dublin and fly home at the weekend.
they wouldnt do so if they had to fly to shannon and drive to killarney (as opposed to fly to kerry and get a taxi to Killarney)

Whats good for the nation is not always good for a locality and vice versa.
other examples are new mountjoy prison, shell pipeline, housing developments in Gaeltacht areas, lack of an immigration policy...............
