432,000 passengers are set to travel through Dublin Airport this bank
holiday weekend.
With St Patrick's Day falling on a Friday, the airport's operator daa
is expecting many Irish people to take advantage of the three-day
weekend and travel abroad.
Thursday and next Monday, while 212,000 are set to fly into the
airport.
The daa said a number of Irish dancing groups will entertain passengers
at arrivals, while a team from Fáilte Ireland will also be on hand to
welcome visitors.
The airport's operator is advising passengers travelling on short-haul
flights to arrive at the airport two hours before their flight and
three hours before a long-haul flight.
Passengers checking in a bag with their airline should allow up to an
additional one hour, it added.
The daa is also reminding passengers that liquids over 100mls cannot be
brought through the security screening area.
"Liquids under 100mls are permitted and should be placed in a single
transparent, re-sealable bag measuring not more than 20cm x 20cm," it
said in a statement.
"Exemptions are in place for medicines and for baby food," it added.
The daa is also advising passengers to check which terminal their
flight is departing from before arriving in the airport.
