Dublin Airport has two terminals, Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. Most flights out of Terminal 1 are shorter flights, while long-haul flights tend to originate out of Terminal 2. Passengers heading to the U.S can actually go through U.S. customs and border control at Dublin Airport.
Dublin Airport has 2 terminals but you can check-in, bag-drop and get all Ryanair flights from terminal 1. Passengers can choose from Standard fares, Plus and Flexi Plus, depending on what add-ons you would like to include in your ticket. These include priority boarding, reserved seats and extra baggage.
Getting back and forth between terminals at Dublin Airport is easy. An indoor walkway connects the Departures Area in Terminal 1 with the Arrivals Area of Terminal 2. From Terminal 1, exit the baggage reclaim area, turn right and take the escalator up to the next floor. The walkway is across from Check-In Area 1.
We advise passengers to arrive at their terminal 2 hours before their scheduled departure time for short-haul flights, and 3 hours before long-haul flights. If you are checking bags or travelling in a group you should allow more time. Always consult your airline for check-in in desk and bag drop opening hours.
Terminal 2 is a 75,000 m2 (810,000 sq ft) terminal and pier (Pier E) which provides aircraft parking for 27 narrow body aircraft through 25 departure gates and 16 immigration desks which can handle up to 15 million passengers annually.
Check with your airline to see where you are landing. ?? No public transport operates between T1 and T2. You can walk the 300m (328 yard) distance between Dublin Airport terminals in around 5 minutes.
Terminal 1 is the arrival and departure point for airlines including Ryanair, Air France, Flybe.com, Germanwings, Iberia, Lufthansa, Norwegian and SAS.
