Numerous Travel Choices From Dublin Airport

By James F. Clifford

Despite the proven fact that Ireland is a small country it has one of the busiest airports in Europe. Dublin Airfield is the largest in the country and provides internal flights and international flights to many destinations across the world. A lately opened new terminal has improved the service and facilities that are generally accessible and it's a good place to go into before exploring the town and the rest of the country.

There are at present 2 terminals at the airport. Terminal one handles all Ryan Air flights plus other leading carriers like Lufthansa, BMI, Air Canada and Swissair. Facilities at the terminal include postal services, currency and banking, net access, luggage services and baby changing facilities. The new terminal 2 handles all Aer Lingus, Delta, Continental and American Airlines flights. Facilities available here are similar to those in terminal 1.

The airfield flies on over a hundred and 70 routes using over 60 different airlines. They fly to 20 8 places in the UK and over 100 places in Europe. 9 services fly to America and many of these have good connections to the rest of the US and Canada. It's also feasible to fly to Africa and the Asia.

If you need to stock up on essentials for your trip or you just fancy spending a bit of time doing some shopping ensure you leave some time to explore the airfields shopping center, The Loop. You should purchase all kinds of things from chocolates to clothing, perfumes and cosmetics, keepsakes and travel kits. Should you not need to carry your purchases around with you, it is possible to store them for free and collect them on the way home using the Store and Collect Service.

You'll be spoiled choice-wise with bars and diners at both of the terminals. There is a extensive selection of coffee bars, fast food chains and sandwich bars to choose from with some of them being open twenty four hours a day. This implies that you don't have to fret about getting hungry when waiting for a late night flight.

When you arrive in Dublin there are a number of other methods of travelling onwards. If you are just travelling the short distance into the city center your best choice is to take a taxi or to get on one of the many buses that go there. If you are travelling some place else in Ireland you will need to take a train or hire an auto. To catch the train you will need to get into the city center but those wanting to hire a car can do so at either terminal.

Dublin city is great spot to visit. There are plenty of hotels within reach for you to order into. There's accommodation all around the city with a variety of styles and budgets to suit each traveller. Dublin itself is a relatively little place so getting from your hotel to notable places is simply done, either by walking or by public transport.

Eire is a wonderful destination and a convenient place for stopping over in the middle of the long journey. Dublin Airfield is a convenient, modern and well appointed place to take your flights from and to and the facilities are second to none.
