  1. Went through T1 today. Arrived at 3am for a 5:55am flight. Place was packed. Luftansa desk wasn’t even manned. So spent about 80 mins in that queue before joining the longest security queue I’ve ever had in Dublin. But to be fair, also comfortably the quickest moving security line I’ve ever been in. Made my flight handy enough.

    Genuinely the panic buy attitude in Ireland is mental. My flight was one of the earliest 5 flights, and there were comfortably 5k people in the terminal by the time I got there. If you didn’t have checked baggage you’d have been through security in 20 mins…

  2. I didn’t get a booster so my vaccine cert is out of date…. However…. I have an appointment in T1 today to get an antigen which send a new EU cert within the hour. That good enough?

  3. At my gate now, got to T1 at 5.30am, no queue outside the building, busy inside but queue for security was moving fine, through security by 6am, everything seemed ok overall considering the amount of people going through there

  4. Hey all,

    I am flying to Portugal in 9 days and getting my 1st booster vaccine today. Does anyone know how long you need to wait before being cleared to fly with the booster vaccine cert. I had my first two jabs over 9 months ago. They said 14 days for the first vaccine but is it different when getting the booster?

    Thanks

  5. Hello! On Sunday’s around 3 o’clock T1 is very busy? Is 2 hours 40 min with fast track and no bags is gona be enough?

  6. Went through T1. Security area is OK, no big queues. Check-in area depends on the airline. Mine (TAP) was OK

  7. Check in, security and preclearance all fine this morning but the terminals are in absolute shite. They also sorely need more maintenance staff and service staff

  8. If this helps alleviate anyone’s stress this morning – we arrived at the long term car park at 9:15 this morning, and we’re through security at 9:55. Shuttle bus, bag drop at Ryanair, and security scan in 40 minutes.

    Edit – should have mentioned, this is for Terminal 1.

  9. I’m in T2 at the moment. I didn’t have a bag to check so that made things easier. I got here just before 9. It took about 25-30 mins to get through security. There was no queue outside the terminal or anything, but it’s fairly busy this morning.

  10. Just an update for anyone who is wondering what the airport is like today. I just got through checking my bag and security in ten minutes (with Ryanair and fast track) but I didn’t even need fast track. The longest que I saw was for people waiting to check in/check bags with Lufthansa

  11. T1 took abou 15 mins to go tru. Que is there but moving fast. Thanks to all that are working hard.

    edit: only with hand luggage.

  12. Flying to East Midlands Airport. at 8:05am on Friday and the earliest bus is meant to get me at Dublin Airport at 4:30am.

    Already checked in on the Ryanair app and have but a single piece of luggage I am taking with onto the plane.

    Think it’ll be enough time?

  13. Are any airlines doing bag drop the night before? I remember this was a thing before Covid.

    I particular are Ryanair doing it?

  14. T2 at 4pm today was a good 50 minutes for security. I had my aerclub card still so managed to skip most of it. Otherwise the airport was pretty quiet. It’s going to be a fucking mess at the weekend

  15. I’m flying at 11am on Monday. Given that it’s a bank holiday I’m thinking it will be very busy, although considering it’s the final day of a bank holiday maybe people will be arriving back from trips more so than leaving? I was only planning on turning up 2.5 hours before (with hand luggage) – is that dumb?

  16. Has anyone travelled with assistance in the chaos of this week? We have it booked for our autistic son (also have the lanyard etc) but I’m panicking that it won’t be available if they’re pulling staff all over the place?!

    Flight 8am on Saturday. Planning on arriving at 430 based on todays media coverage (2.5hrs plus an hour for bags). Dreading the whole thing

  17. I just setup VeriFLY for my flight to the States tomorrow. How long does it take them to confirm your Covid documentation after it is uploaded, anyone know?

  18. I have a 6.20am flight on the 14th of June to Rome. How many hours would you say I would need to make sure I definitely don’t miss it

  19. Arrived terminal 1 at 4:20, massive queues outside and they didn’t move for 20 mins so got fairly nervous. Suddenly started moving steadily and from there it took about 1hr to snake into terminal, bag drop, security and the walk to gate, constantly moving. The few staff that are there are doing a good job but are unable to help except to direct you to correct place.

  20. Changed flights to 12.35 PM on the Thursday 28th July before the August bank holiday…wonder how queues are looking today before the June bank holiday.

  21. Arrived at T2 at 6:30 for a 12:30 departure. Got through bag check in 10 minutes, security in 15 minutes. Went through USA customs/preclearance at about 8:30 and took about 25-30 minutes. Smooth sailing for transatlantic flights today

  22. How do they check if you’re too early for your flight? Do they ask for the boarding pass at the entrance? Invoice ticket? What? I won’t be able to print the boarding pass myself as i need a clearance from the airline first.
