Dublin Airport, International airport in Fingal, Ireland.
Dublin Airport operates two passenger terminals across multiple levels, connecting Ireland to over 170 destinations worldwide through numerous airlines. The terminals contain check-in areas, departure lounges, retail outlets, and food services distributed across several floors.
The facility opened in January 1940 on a former military site in Collinstown. It has been expanded several times over the decades to accommodate growing international air traffic.
Arrival areas regularly display work by Irish artists and musicians, offering travelers a first taste of the local creative scene. Both terminals feature elements of the Irish language and design that connect arriving or departing with a sense of local identity.
Several bus routes run directly to Dublin city center, regional connections reach other Irish cities, and taxis plus car rental desks are available. The terminals are linked by covered walkways, with signage guiding visitors to different areas and services.
Passengers flying to the United States complete immigration checks here before leaving Ireland, saving time after landing. This avoids queues at the destination airport and allows direct exit from the terminal upon arrival.
