@a1_bloke T1 also has some of the new machines😉

Stick to the far left in the T1 screening hall and you’ll get them!

Quick tip!

If you ever want to feel fancy flying with Ryanair & have no check-in baggage, go through security via Terminal 2!

After security, you can then walk all the way over to Terminal 1!

Follow the directions below on how to get back to T1.

ℹ️ Fun Dublin Airport Fact!

Many people don’t realise that Terminal 1 & Terminal 2 @DublinAirport are connected both airside and landside.

This is useful if you want to head over to a bar or lounge in another terminal.

⚠️ T2 Baggage Belt failure

Due to an internal issue with the baggage system, passengers are queuing outside and facing some delays getting through T2.

There is no updated timing advisory, but arriving at the airport a bit earlier than planned may be beneficial.

Did you know that @IrishCoastGuard helicopters have emergency “blue lights” and “sirens”?

Well… in a way they do!

A call sign is an identification name given to every aircraft. It’s individualistic to every flight. It’s used to identify aircraft.

Under normal ops…

(1/4)

[EIDW Live @EidwLive]

When the @IrishCoastGuard respond to an emergency, they change their call sign to “rescue”.

For example: you have Rescue 118 in Sligo, Rescue 116 in Dublin and Rescue 117 in Waterford.

This means they’re responding to a real emergency and are working.
