Dublin Airport opens stunning new Liffey Lounge

Dublin Airport’s focus on improving standards for passengers is continuing with the opening of the revamped “The Liffey Lounge”.

Located between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, the stunning Liffey Lounge replaces the former T2 Lounge and offers an ideal pre-flight retreat for passengers departing from both terminals at Dublin Airport.

The new opening marks the first phase of an extensive revamp of the airport’s lounge offering, which has also seen the stunning East Lounge being rebranded as The Martello Lounge.

Passengers can look forward to more lounge improvements too, with work due to start later this year on a complete overhaul and extension of the popular T1 Lounge, which will see the lounge almost double in size, as well as the 51st&Green lounge in Terminal 2.

According to Ronan Fitzsimons, General Manager Commercial at Dublin Airport: “Last year saw our passenger satisfaction scores reach an all-time high and we want to continue that trend in 2025. We’re constantly listening to passengers, and we know there is strong demand for more and better lounge space. Our lounges have never been more popular and are almost constantly sold-out, so this expansion and overhaul will come as music to the ears of our passengers. The opening of the revamped Liffey Lounge marks the first step of our journey and feedback to date has been really positive.”

To celebrate the opening of The Liffey Lounge, Dublin Airport is offering special rates starting from €25 per person. Once in the lounge, passengers can get access to: a complimentary buffet, featuring a variety of snacks, soup, sandwiches, pastries and salads; self-service coffee and tea stations; USB and wireless charging ports; comfortable seating; soft drinks; alcoholic drinks and much more. Showers are also available in the lounge, as well as access to printing and scanning facilities and both shared workspaces and individual private chairs.

More improvements coming in 2025
Dublin Airport is also working on a large number of other additional improvements for passengers this year, including a new and improved Fast Track facility in Terminal 1, a new Drop & Go parking service at Terminal 1, the roll-out of a new Airport Club offering, better and easier way-finding, more hydration stations and more seating in both terminals and additional seating and comfort facilities for public transport users.

The coming months will also see the continued overhaul of Dublin Airport’s food and drink offering, with more than 10 new food and drink outlets set to open before summer, including Pret A Manger, a new Italian food court, new cafes and the addition of a new Irish bar in Terminal 2.

Mr Fitzsimons added: “This is going to be another very busy year at Dublin Airport and the team is determined to offer more choice, value and higher standards than ever before. We’re confident that passengers will like what’s coming down the line and we look forward to announcing more details very soon on all of the great things that are coming.”
