Dozens of flights cancelled in and out of Dublin Airport

Dozens of flights in and out of Dublin Airport have been cancelled due to the icy weather conditions.

The airport operator, Dublin Airport Authority, said 23 outbound flights and 27 inbound flights have been cancelled. Freezing temperatures led to the cancellation of many flights yesterday as well.

Passengers are advised to check with their airline with regards to their flight. DAA's media relations manager Graeme McQueen said all surfaces were treated last night and are open and fully operational.

Dublin Airport Authority tweeted: "Dublin Airport is once again fully open & operational today (Saturday). However, as a knock on from the issues faced by airlines yesterday, a number of flights have been cancelled. Passengers are advised to check with their airline for the latest info regarding their flight."

"All surfaces at the airport - runways, aprons etc - were pre-emptively treated through the night. daa’s teams were on hand in the terminals overnight to help passengers seeking to rebook their cancelled journeys from Friday, providing water etc to those waiting at airline desks."

Ryanair have warned of "potential disruption" again today due to icy conditions at the airport. Meanwhile, DAA will be offering 500 jobs during an upcoming jobs fair.
