A piece of news that should reassure the greatest number. Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin confirmed on Tuesday that Santa Claus will be allowed to cross Irish airspace on December 24.
“I want to confirm without a doubt that Father Christmas’s access to Irish airspace will be facilitated,” he told the Irish Parliament.
Michael Martin was answering a question from Cormac Devlin MP, who asked the Prime Minister if in the “12 Christmas Dreams” the government was doing all it could to ensure Santa and reindeer reached Ireland safely.
Santa Claus will arrive on time.
The prime minister then added very seriously: “And according to our information, Santa Claus will arrive on time, as he should.”
“The children of the nation can be sure of this,” he continued.
As the Huffington Post reports, in 2015 the Irish Aviation Authority granted permission for Santa’s sleigh to enter airspace, while the Minister for Transport said that “a very large man with a white beard and a bright red suit will be driving a low flying sled”. with eight reindeer led by one with a big red nose,” adding that help would be available if Santa needed it.
