The advice for people flying out of Dublin airport in the coming days and weeks has changed.
Passengers have faced lengthy delays through security checks because of a lack of staff with security clearance and the increase in travel following the lifting of Covid-19 restrictions.
The Dublin Airport Authority now says anyone travelling on short haul flights should arrive up to two and a half hours before departure and three and a half hours for long-haul travel.
Anyone on a short-haul flight that's due to take off after 8.30am shouldn't arrive at the airport any earlier than 6am.

Passengers on short-haul flights taking off after 08.30 are advised not to arrive any earlier than 06.00. pic.twitter.com/Dp9uXN2DDH
