À propos Dublin Airport

L'aéroport de Dublin est le plus fréquenté d'Irlande et un point d'entrée majeur pour les voyages transatlantiques grâce à ses installations de pré-dédouanement américain. Situé à environ 10 kilomètres au nord du centre de Dublin, DUB accueille plus de 32 millions de passagers par an. L'aéroport dispose de deux terminaux : le Terminal 1, qui gère la plupart des compagnies, et le Terminal 2, inauguré en 2010, qui dessert principalement Aer Lingus et les transporteurs américains. Le pré-dédouanement américain permet aux passagers de passer les contrôles d'immigration et de douane américains à Dublin, arrivant ainsi comme passagers domestiques aux États-Unis. DUB est la base principale d'Aer Lingus et de Ryanair, la plus grande compagnie à bas prix d'Europe. L'aéroport exploite deux pistes et sert de hub de correspondance entre l'Europe et l'Amérique du Nord, particulièrement pour les passagers transitant entre le Royaume-Uni et les États-Unis après le Brexit. Les bus Dublin Express et Airlink assurent des connexions fréquentes avec le centre-ville. L'importance de Dublin en tant que siège européen de nombreuses multinationales technologiques américaines, combinée à la forte diaspora irlandaise, génère une demande constante de vols transatlantiques. L'aéroport joue un rôle vital dans l'économie irlandaise, soutenant le tourisme et les investissements étrangers.
