Airports in Ireland

When flying into Ireland, most travellers will be introduced to Dublin first.

Since its first flight in 1940, Dublin airport has expanded to include two terminals and service of over 40 carriers.

Public bus and coach services are available from Dublin Airport into the city as well as to surrounding towns and other Irish cities.

Taxis are available for travellers from the airport to destinations in and around Dublin. Car rental services are also available at the airport. If you are planning to drive while in Ireland, don't forget that cars here drive on the left side of the road; roads in smaller cities can be quite narrow and driving in Ireland can, at times, require nerves of steel.
