A man "barged" past airline staff at a gate in Dublin Airport as he boarded a plane without a passport or a boarding pass, Aer Lingus has claimed.
The man reportedly made it through security of Terminal 2 without a passport before the incident at the gate on Monday night. Airport Police removed him from the plane and detained him before he was arrested by gardai.
He was then charged with trespassing with intent to commit an offence and with failure to produce a valid passport or similar document as a non-national in the State, the Irish Independent reported.
