Checking In at Dublin Airport
Give yourself plenty of time before take-off. Arriving early helps you breeze through check-in, security, and any unexpected queues.
Short-haul flights: Aim to arrive at least 2 hours before departure
Long-haul flights: Give yourself at least 3 hours
Travelling with checked bags or in a group? Arrive a little earlier to keep things stress-free. And don't forget to check with your airline for the latest bag drop and desk opening times.
OPENING TIMES
T1-02:30 – Until last departing flight
T2-03:30 – Until last departing flight
Online Check-in
If you've already checked in online, just head straight to security. Make sure to leave enough time to pass through screening comfortably.
Once you're through, keep an eye on the Dublin Airport App for updates on your gate and boarding time. Download the app through the Apple App or Google Play stores. You can also use the flight info screens around the airport instead.
Clear Security Smoothly
Liquids go in containers under 100ml, packed in a clear bag and separated from your hand luggage. Baby milk, medicine, or dietary liquids can go over the 100ml limit—just ask a security officer for a special liquids tray.
Place electronics, coins, wallets, belts, jewellery, and metal-strap watches in a tray. If you're passing through a C3 machine in T2, you can leave your electronics in your bag.
Keep your passport packed in your luggage—it won't be checked during your screening.
Hoodies, jackets or other bulky layers will need to go in a tray. Same with boots or shoes above ankle height.
Sharp objects over 6cm aren’t allowed in your hand luggage.
Pushchairs, wheelchairs and walking aids are welcome. Just ask a Security Officer if you need a hand.
