Almost 450,000 passengers are set to pass through Dublin Airport over the upcoming May bank holiday weekend.
Between Friday and Monday, Dublin Airport is expecting to welcome just over 447,000 passengers, including 229,000 departing and 218,000 incoming passengers.
Departing passengers are advised to be at the airport two hours before a short-haul flight and three hours before a long-haul flight.
According to Graeme McQueen, Media Relations Manager at daa, the operator of Dublin Airport: “The coming weekend will be another busy one at Dublin Airport, and all four days will see us welcome more than 100,000 passengers each day. The busiest day of the weekend is likely to be Friday when around 116,000 will pass through.
“The departure gates will be busy with sports fans, holiday makers and business travellers heading off overseas, while the arrivals halls will welcome tens of thousands of tourists from around the world who will go on to visit all four corners of the island of Ireland. We love these busy weekends and the team at Dublin Airport can’t wait to welcome everyone,” added McQueen.
