A major €200m baggage system has been implemented at Dublin Airport just in time for the peak tourist season.
Installation of the new integrated baggage handling system began during the Covid-19 pandemic when the airport was extremely quiet and was completed in May. The system includes more than 14 kilometres of conveyer belts, covering an area the equivalent to seven GAA pitches.
According to daa, the project involved an upgrading of the overall baggage system in line with European civil aviation standards, while future-proofing the system for up to 40 million passengers per annum at Dublin Airport.
