No such luck, the Security search area at Connections closed at 13:00! So, out through arrivals/Customs and back through Security, the queues for which were horrendous (25 minutes wait time). Fortunately my hand luggage wasn't pulled to one side for inspection, otherwise I would have missed my onward flight to ALC. Never again, DUB in the afternoon is totally unsuitable as a connecting hub
Well, ahm, you flew two unprotected tickets?
