T1 to be redeveloped and made much more user friendly particularly the corridor after security where it can be congested at times with passenger volumes.
ARI Ireland plots major commercial redevelopment at Dublin T1 | TheMoodieReport.com
At least it won't be dull an dark the way it currently is.

Brilliant, the DAA sure has a lot to be thankful for where T1 is concerned I remember those bottlenecks between 2003 and 2009! How it kept running without any delays is beyond me, about time T1 got some TLC.

Lufthansa carried 370,000 passengers last year up 7% and there highest since operations began. 3/4 of passengers connect and the most popular connections are Moscow, Kiev, Tel Aviv, Lagos, Sofia, Beijing, Caracas, Tokyo, Zagreb, Cairo, Graz and Minsk.
Quiet surprised with the level of connections within Europe.

Most of those European destinations are not available from Dublin, so it makes sense that there would be connections.
I also know of one ongoing large IT project that must be creating 10-20 trips a week between Dublin and Graz, which adds up to a nice chunk over a year. Graz is quite difficult to get to if you don't connect in Frankfurt.

Lufthansa success on DUB FRA nog at all surprising . I used then on VCE FRA DUB last April. Due to a storm in Ireland the plane (full 321) was diverted to MAN. A significant amount of the passengers were Russian transmitting through FRA.
I actually did DUB VCE via ZRH booking all flights through LH. The ticket was exactly half of that of EI or FR direct flights ex DUB.
Same story this year EI in peak season to many Italian airports double that of LH via FRA . LH is great product and often at an excellent price.

You must also take into account that LH has probably also soaked up a large proportion of the star feed from the former BD service through Heathrow.
Moscow and Tel Aviv are long 'short haul' sectors but must be high on the list of potential new routes from Dublin, along with Zagreb, Kyiv and Cairo, but for the unrest in the land of pyramids.
Why don't Lufthansa operate a proper Dublin Munich schedule year round? EI have demonstrated the point to point demand exists.
This route would open up central Europe and offer a fantastic transit experience, alongside improved one stop potential to south east European and Italian regional cities.
Come to think of it, Lufthansa groups exposure to the Irish market is small - No Brussels, no Vienna, hardly any German wings and a poor Munich schedule.

Before people start cheering, will non-transferring pax still be allowed to walk from the aircraft straight out the front door of the terminal without any interference from Border Security.

...and while we're on that topic, why is it that Dublin Airport doesn't have a dedicated exit for UK passengers? It's quite a large percentage of inbound traffic after all.

I wonder what percentage of BA passengers on the London routes don't transfer.

One aspect of the Common Travel Area which I find amusing (and which seems to be generally ignored in British airports whenever I arrive there) is that the CTA only applies to UK and Irish citizens, i.e. you may legally be called upon to show ID to prove that you do not have to show a passport.
If you are not a UK or Irish citizen, it's not a passport-free travel area. So strictly speaking, when I arrive at STN or LGW off the plane from Dublin, I only have the right to be allowed in on the basis of my boarding card if I also have an Irish or UK passport.

Arriving in DUB is very fast and very rarely delays clearing immigration like the UK for many passengers not Irish of course. If it's not that it's baggage delays. Handlers could learn a thing or two by being shown how things are done at DUB in general. At some UK airports operational efficiently is very poor and well below DUB when it should be the same.
The BA move to T5 is purely to try steal market share from EI which are carrying much higher numbers from both DUB and BHD, some BA flights are ghost flights compared to EI.
