They tweeted: "Passengers flying from Dublin Airport over the coming days are advised to check with their airlines for the latest flight information regarding their flight.
"Our travel advice for those departing from Dublin Airport remains as follows; short haul flights to UK and Europe arrive two hours before departure.

For long haul flights to the USA, Cana, and Middle East, Dublin Airport is asking passengers to "arrive three hours before departure." They said: "If checking in a bag verify your airline's check-in & bag-drop desk opening times, and if possible allow up to one hour of additional time to check in luggage."
