Dublin Airport has confirmed that no passengers heading through departures have missed their flights as a result of queuing - as long as they have heeded recent advice.
There have been many accounts on Twitter and other social media platforms where passengers have claimed to miss their flights, however, the daa says throughout the month of June, 93% of passengers were through security in the terminals in less than 45 minutes.
In a statement to the Irish Mirror, a daa spokesperson said: “No passenger who has heeded our travel advice has missed a flight due to queues at security in recent weeks.
“Indeed, through the month of June so far, 93% of passengers have got through security in less than 45 minutes, with 77% getting through in less than 30 minutes.”
As the summer season heats up and thousands of passengers get ready to head to sunnier climates, Airport officials continue to ask passengers to abide by the existing advice.
“All departing passengers are advised to arrive at the airport 2.5 hours before a short-haul flight and 3.5 hours prior to a long-haul flight, with an additional one hour advised if checking in a bag,” the spokesperson said.
For those who have any issues on arrival to queue, there are dedicated staff standing by to help out.
“The Dublin Airport team is on hand should any passenger require help or advice while at the airport.”
