All 3,000 unclaimed bags at Dublin Airport have been moved from Terminal One to a warehouse.
Aviation Minister Hildegarde Naughton said a transfer of all bags from the T1 Baggage Hall to a landside location, believed to be in the Swords area, was now complete. The place where the “missing” bags are being kept is convenient for passengers, with sufficient parking and access.
The junior minister said: “It is expected that this will speed up this baggage repatriation process as both handlers and couriers will not require badged access to this area.” Ms Naughton confirmed that air carriers are liable for damage caused by delay in the carriage by air of passengers’ baggage or cargo.
