T2 has separate car parks. Aircoach and 747 pick up from T2 also. All EI ground staff are in T2 so that may be why they wont use T1.
Its only 4 flights so wont affect that many passengers. Saturday is the only night it realy happons. |

With the new terminal and gates layout, it's important to not think of gates as being necessarily associated with either of the terminals. Yes, the 400 gates (formerly Pier E) are physically part of the T2 development, in the same way as the 300 gates (formerly Pier B) are part of the T1 (formerly the Main Terminal) development. But now, the Terminals are the check in/departures and arrivals areas and all the gates are accessible to either Terminal via an air side connection. So a passenger checking in through T2 could depart via any gate, similarly an arriving flight could disembark passengers at any gate and have them "arrive" into either terminal (in practice, T2 pax will mostly depart and arrive via the 400's). JAS. BTW, There was an interesting little historical snippet on the radio a few days back. A DAA spokesman was discussing the bus drop off/pickup and car park arrangement and mentioned that T2 is the 5th passenger terminal to be build at Dublin. 1st was the Central Terminal (now known as the "Old Terminal"), then there was a temporary structure known as the "Lourdes Terminal", the North Terminal which is beside the Old Terminal, followed by the Main Terminal (now T1) and now T2. |
Went through T2 passport control when I came in on Saturday morning. 1 garda on the EU passports line, 2 on the non EU passports line. So the TA flights, and the europe flights that are in at that time of the morning dont warrant some extra staff?

1 garda on the EU passports line, 2 on the non EU passports line. So the TA flights, and the Europe flights that are in at that time of the morning dint warrant some extra staff? 12 US/Middle East flights due in between 5.00 - 10.30 (13/14 some days) 8 European flights due in between 5.00 - 10.30 Air Baltic to cancel DUB - Riga for winter but will operate daily from March 2012. Ryanair have increased it for winter. Cimber Air have gone from 4 weekly to daily on DUB - Billund until mid August but it will finish in October and resume next march. Luxair will drop DUB along with other European routes as they are selling 2 aircraft. |
And on a happy note?? Ah nothing oh time for my P45

Aer Lingus regional routes would appear to be doing rather well! Taking Dublin Glasgow route (and comparing to Prestwick), it would seem that the trend is toward Glasgow International and it has been traditionally Ryanair that carry the numbers on Prestwick Dublin!! Well done Aer Lingus Regional.
The othe markets where FR & EI Regional compete all seem to be growing hopefully the new entrants are getting their fair good share of the traffic (not new new but since last year). Looking at the comparison on PIK & GLA from Dublin and indeed the general performance of FR to STN from PIK V EZY to STN from PIK, this may give some clues as to why FR may find GLA an attractive route. (I do realise PIK STN frequency is now low but still figures been in decline) The improvement in figures of Aer Lingus R on GLA may alone give FR some sense of urgency to look at GLA. MOL hasnt passed up many opportunities to challenge Aer Arann or indeed Aer Lingus for that matter. EI-BUD |
Alitalla and Zest Air flights had to return to DUB over the last few days as well as AC.
Todays LHR - St. Johns dropped in to get fuel. SAS are still looking at night stopping in DUB from next March to have early morning flights to CPH. |
The planned DART airport - city centre will now cost 200m and not 300m stated in May. This is much less than Metro and is lightly to be picked by the Gov in September. If go ahead given it will be open in 4 years.
Train every 15 minutes. Journey time of 25 minutes. Station 5 mins walk from T1 and T2. 6.5km new track from airport to Clongriffin. City Centre Resignalling completed by 2012 - 12 to 20 trains an hour. Park & Ride build near airport for commuters from Swords. A proposal will be submitted by an Iarnrod Eireann at end of the month. |
Are weather conditions causing problems at the airport today?
And Air Transit deparuture to YYZ? |
Wind (strong gusts) was a problem.
Air Transit departure to YYZ has being delayed. Next information @ 08.00 tomorrow but expect 24 hour delay. Reports are that on deparutre from YYZ the aircraft burst a tyre and damage to the airframe was found on arrival in Dublin. |

Last few weeks on & off an A332 has been operating the evening DUB-FAO-DUB route on Wednesdays, im guessing the other days different A332 a/c are off-duty being serviced.
|
The morning DUB - FAO is due to be A320 with the evening being a A321. Over the last few weeks the A321 have being tech quiet a bit.
A332 not scheduled to operate it. So not sure why it is but if there is more than 174 pax booked and A321 has being tech then EI would have to use A332 as its doing nothing that day or cancel the flight. |
on a wednesday there is a spare A332/3. The aircraft normally operated DUB -MCO 3 days a week and the 2nd daily flight the other 3 days a week leaving wednesday as a free day, normally this allows for maintenance to b carried out or flights upgraded because as u say, FAO is sometimes booked at capacity. Up until the EI/United JV it used to be operated by the A330 as well as AGP and sometimes NCE.
The long haul fleet are currently operating as follows........................ 1xJFK 104/5 Daily (the aircraft that comes in as EI104 normally rotates and does the AGP flight and then the 108/9 to JFK) 1xJFK/AGP 584/5 and 108/9 Daily 1xBOS EI139/138 Daily 1xORD EI124/5 Daily 1xSNN (operates m-w-f-s to JFK as EI110/111 and -T-T-S- to BOS as EI134/5) 1x -T-T-S (normally an A332 to MCO then on M---F-S to BOS as EI138/9) 1x IAD-MAD (UA Joint Venture - A332 -now operated by EI-DUO, was EI-DAA up until the 12th July but aircraft switch was made in BOS) |
Air Transit flight to YYZ left at 03.00. A replacment A330.
The other Air Transit A330 with burst tyre and damage to wing departed form hanger 6 at 03.30 for SNN. |
Would sombody have a list of Airlines and what Piers they use at DUB. Thanks.
|
Pier A:
Aer Arann Aer Lingus Regional Air France/Cityjet (also use B) Air Southwest Air Nostrun Cimber Sterling Luxair Tyrolean Airways Pier B: Adria Airways Air Contractors *** Aer Lingus (few morning dep and few evening arr) Air Baltic Air Canada Air France/Cityjet (also use A) Air Italy Air Transit Alitalia Arkia Israel Airlines BMI BMI Regional Dubrovnik Airline Europe Airpost *** Flybe Germanwings Hoildays Czech Airlines *** Jet2 Jet4You Lauda Air Luthansa Malιv Hungarian Airlines Monarch Airlines *** Norwegian Air Shuttle Orbest Orizonia Airlines Pegasus Airlines SATA Scandinavian Airlines (also use D) Swiss S7 Airlines Spanair Thomson *** Tunisair Travel Service Turkish Airlines *** Also use Pier A/D if Pier B is full during the summer season. Saturday would be mostl lightly. Pier B gives priority to scheduled airlines. Pier D: Blue Air BH Air Onur Air Ryanair Sky Airlines Scandinavian Airlines (also use B) Tailwind Airlines Pier E: Aer Lingus American Airlines Continental Delta Eithad US Airways Still missing 10 - 15 airlines but most use Pier B and if full A or D. May not all be correct but most is. |
Air Transit flight to YYZ left at 03.00. A replacement A330. The other Air Transit A330 with burst tyre and damage to wing departed form hanger 6 at 03.30 for SNN. Crew thought it was a bird strike. AAIU investigator was sent to airport but Canada's Transportation Safety Board will investigate. |
And for that Pier list, dont forget Air Contractors. Pier A/B.
Doing very well with the Boeing :ok: |
I have them as Europe Airpost as its there B733 and Europe Airpost operate B733 to. Both are part of the same company.
|
Both are part of the same company But we wont argue over that. Different AOC/Management/Pot of Money. Interesting expansion plan into IT next year but I cant say much now. |
The latest innovation? Pay to skip the security queues. What are the odds that the queues will go completely to hell now?
Welcome to Airport Club at Dublin Airport 150/year seems very steep for that benefit alone. I'd imagine most frequent fliers already have lounge cards... |

Latest News > New Passenger Security Screening Area Opens In Terminal 1

i see the point of allowing onward travel to the US but i dint think this will happen until EI Regional can merge its operations into T2 or at least Pier B. |
I've only flown through Pier E once so far so maybe someone could answer this question.
Is there anywhere that passengers could be dropped off by bus. It wouldn't be an uncommon arrangement to park turboprops remotely and bus people to them. Indeed, this happens often enough at Pier A. So maybe that's a solution to the Pier A/E problem. |
A bit of confusion there I think. Apologies.
I meant dropped off from the aircraft to the terminal airside by bus. |
As far as I know you can't in T2 but you can in T1. Its being a long time since an airline has had to do it.
|
Any good route news for winter 2011. ANy airline that pulls out over the winter should be forced to repay any of the subsides they got to start the routes in the first place and i would say that based on the total lack of commitment from the airlines at leats that the travel tax will be back on again in the Dec budget.

The last two EI Regional flights I've had from Dublin (Glasgow and Edinburgh) have both involved getting bussed to the aircraft!
|
will ryr keep any of the extra based a/c in dub for the winter. When will they leave if so and where are all the extra crew going to go next?
|
Ryanair extra aircraft at Dublin? They generally like to move them away from Dublin. Do Ryanair handle all there flights or do they have a contract with a ground handling company. In T2 how are check-in desks 1 - 28 split between the american carriers.
|
Ryanair have no extra aircraft in DUB than 2009/2010.
Summer 18 based. March - May 16 based May - September 18 based September - October 16 based Winter yet to be confirmed but will be more less the same as 2010/11 and Ryanair handle all there flights. T2 - Check-In Eithad - Desks 1 - 4 Delta - Desks 5 - 12 Continental - Desks 13 - 17 US Airways - Desks 18 - 23 American - Desks 24 - 28 Aer Lingus - Desks 29 - 56 Delta may also use some of EY/CO desks as I was there on Friday as a passenger and they had 6 desk open for the 767 to JFK at 14.10. I think they use 6 - 8 for the A330 to ATL. |
I'm flying LGW - DUB - LGW with EI from T2 has anyone got any pictures of T2?
