Dublin Airport has confirmed that no passengers heading through departures have missed their flights as a result of queuing at security, as long as they have heeded recent advice.

In a statement to the Irish Mirror, a daa spokesperson said: “No passenger who has heeded our travel advice has missed a flight due to queues at security in recent weeks.
