Dublin Airport Opiniones 

The worst and useless security system I sever experience

Arrived in Dublin airport from Dubai 18/6/25. First escalator not working. Toilets dirty and no toilet roll. Very obvious that toilets had not been checked

EAT YOUR FOOD BEFORE YOU GO TO THE GATE!!!
You hit PASSPORT/IMMIGRATION/CUSTOMS before the gate and that's a BAD THING!!!

For our last meal in Dublin, I bought two types of beautiful ham and cheese croissant baked goods from the nice folks at our corner Centra market. They looked so delicious and ... I will never know. I had GOES (Global Entry). There was absolutely NO LINE. I had the food and was going to get us all set up for a last picnic at the gate and SHE MADE ME THROW IT AWAY. I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO TASTE IT!!!

May I at least eat some of it?
I'm hungry and that's my family's last lunch.
My husband and mom were so hungry they had started on some on our walk, but I was carrying it and didn't have the hands to eat any of it, yet ... the gate is right over there ... I just want to eat something ...
NO! THROW IT AWAY NOW!
There's not even a line ... there's no one else here except me!
NO!
She even had me open up a sealed and labeled "buttered roll" so that she could look very closesly in all the corners and check that it was really just bread and butter.

I was painstakingly carrying all the other food we had bought on our trip, had laid it out and taken a picture of it the night before, and she didn't even look at my picture and waved me through. The other food had seeds and dried fruit ... nope ... no fox given.

I was almost in tears ... AND HANGRY!!!
YOU MADE ME THROW AWAY OUR LUNCH!!!
NOT COOL!!! I DIDN'T GET TO EAT!!!

Dublin is no longer my favorite city ... I thought the idea of going through customs and immigration before boarding the plane was a good idea ... FECK THAT!!! What a crappy end to my vacation.

NOTE: The Aer Lingus crew came through, got me some chocolate and crisps, and said that the signage should be better that says EAT YOUR FOOD BEFORE ENTERING!!!

We flew home to Manchester from Vancouver via Dublin, at Vancouver we couldn't get our boarding passes for the Dublin flight. So we arrive at Dublin at 07.55 to find our flight is cancelled hence the reason why we couldn't get our boarding passes. The signage at the airport is atrocious we walked around the airport so many times trying to get to terminal 2 asking staff which way to go, clueless, not one person knew. Eventually decided to go outside and low and behold there was the walkway to terminal 2.
Found out we were booked on a flight to Manchester at 12.45 so we had a few hours to wait got a coffee at Starbucks because the service everywhere else was diabolical.
We arrived in Manchester half an hour late with no cases, turned out hey were still in Dublin. They had 4 hours to get the cases on the other plane a case of right hand not knowing what the right hands doing, next time I will refuse to travel via Dublin.

The security team at the security scanning for departures are absolutely amazing, shoutout to Angela who made my day so much brighter!

Awful airport. Such rude staff on security section when loading your luggage. Absolutely disgusting. would give 0 stars if I could.

Would have given zero stars! Such an unfriendly airport with everything closing about 9pm even though flights go much later than that and Ryanair late flights are always delayed, but just not enough to have to pay compensation! Staff rudely telling us we had to move on to the gate and when we get there all that's open is the vending machine!

Searchers are complete amateurs badly trained and incredibly rude. One of them basically tried to steal my zippo which is a present bought for me by my daughter 20 years ago. I am an engineer and have worked overseas for decades and always carry the zippo and have NEVER been challenged for carrying it. Searcher who was on his first day told me they have always been illegal and said don’t worry I’ll get rid of it for you. Then got cheeky and played the ‘you need to calm down’ card, I missed my flight to Germany and had to stay the night and book another flight. Are Lingus were great, the girl I dealt with agreed that the searchers are the worst thing about the airport and they didn’t charge me to change flights due to the embarrassingly bad behaviour by the searchers.
I usually avoid flying out of Dublin but from now on I will avoid it like the plague.

I arrived by air at Dublin Airport with an hour to spare for a connecting flight. Asked if I could transfer to my gate airside. "No" was reply. Had to walk 10 mins to get out of Arrivals. then enter Departures. Security queue was quite long. With 20 mins to go managed to request way to front via understanding travellers. 10 mins walk to gate as final call being made. Departing plane a couple of gates from one I arrived on. No time for refreshments or facilities. What a waste of time, stress and unnecessary security check. Won't be back.

Loved my trip but the airport experience was not fun. We decided that next time you we won't bother purchasing tickets to a lounge because even if you show up 3.5 hours early, you don't get to spend the time in there anyway because rental car and security take forever. You can't get your money back from the lounges even if it was the airport's faut. I am an avid traveler so traveling is not new for me. It's also alot of standing around with no place to sit so not great for anyone with any sort of injury or disability. My father was in alot of pain while we had to wait.

The airport is way undersized for the volume of passengers. Line ups to washrooms, not enough seating, bad signage directions, no phone charging stations, seats in eating areas in disrepair, and intercom announcing flights is unintelligible.

horrible people worst airport ever my brothers bag fit in the bag sizer and we still got charged €60!!!!! mind you this was a gear bag that fits perfectly under the seat R.I.D.I.C.U.L.O.U.S never coming back here ever again such a bad place even the staff were rude about the situation.

We were boarding our flight from Dublin back to Kerry. We were going through the boarding system where you show your passport and boarding pass before getting on plane. I was with my boyfriend’s family and one of his family members got called out for a bag check in the Ryanair bag check boxes. His bag fit perfectly in but they still charged him €60 EXTRA even though it fit in the box. The staff were rude about the situation and were incredibly rude in general. Not a lot of people can be affording an extra €60 just like that and the thing is THE BAG FIT IN THE BOX. Most horrible people ever and so miserable. No sympathy for anyone.

Brought a gadget for the holiday which was scanned 3 times! Took time to scan the luggages and inside it during the security screen, less staff around ti do the screening it was around 5:40 am. Missed our flight because of it. Begged the staff if he could checked ours first coz we will miss the flight but instead grabbed the item and rescanned again for the 3rd time. Cost me 600€ for the rebooking.

Extremely rude bag check woman was sarcastic to me on two occasions 2 years apart: Calling me over and asking me "Am I your wife?" and leaving me to guess what I did wrong. Apparently I didn't push a bag 1 ft over onto the conveyer belt. Apparently not understanding the rules in this one specific airport when every single airport has different rules merits a highly unprofessional sarcastic comment. In fact in some you just put your bag on the counter and the staff will just drag it along themselves to the conveyer belt without some entitled allergic to work overreaction.

The fear would be on me to speak to anyone in that matter if I was working a customer-facing job. But I suppose Dublin Airport just doesn't care enough to discipline these kind of people or give them the boot as she's still there two years later. Other staff were nice enough though. I also reported this incident through the Customer Experience form on the Dublin Airport website.

One of the worst airports in Europe. Overcrowded, backlogged and understaffed security screening, frequently turned away from the T1 lounge due to max capacity, Liffey Lounge has old and stained seating, unfriendly staff throughout the airport.

The staff in pret are all so kind. All the staff are clearly making an effort to ensure the customers are enjoying their experience. All going above and beyond.

Had the most amazing few days in Dublin with my friend. However on our return journey treatment by one female at security was disgusting not only to us but to an elderly lady also very rude and threw her tray back at her never seen anything like it in my life clearly she is in the wrong job!!!!!!!

Airport mad busy, ques horrendous no seats at the gate.. awful but that won’t bother them! And as for Ryan air, no comment

If I could give zero stars I would. It is the worst airport in Europe. Massively over crowded. Security staff rude nasty & ignorant. Horrible to passengers treating us as if we are all idiots. Old airport not capable of dealing with this massive amount of passengers pushing us through as if we were a herd of sheep. I never want to use it again. In future will use Standstead or Manchester to Shannon. Look at Copenhagen Airport & see how smoothly it runs, with well trained & polite staff, you might learn something.
