There was an extraordinary collapse in overseas travel to and from Ireland in June, according to the Central Statistics Office.
As the effects of the COVID-19 crisis continued to hit the travel sector, the CSO reported just 57,100 arrivals and 73,900 departures in the month.
That compares with monthly travel of approximately 2 million in each direction in June 2019. That equates to annual falls of 97.1% in arrivals and 96.4% in departures.
Of the 57,100 persons arriving in Ireland, 40,200 - or 70.4% - arrived by air. 16,900 - just under 30% - arrived by sea. The percentage breakdown for departures was of a similar magnitude.
