Dublin Airport top destinations

Dublin Airport takes around 20 million passengers to 27 airports in the UK, and a network of 100 European airports, each year. Dublin Airport also has long haul services to North America, North Africa and the Middle East. Here we take a look at the top five destinations that people choose to visit from Dublin Airport.

Barcelona

The capital of Catalonia and the second largest city in Spain lies on the Mediterranean coast, which means a warm climate, beautiful beaches and some amazing historical landmarks. Sports fans will marvel at the Camp Nou football stadium (usually called “the Nou Camp” in Britain), which you can take daytime tours of, or if you are lucky, perhaps even buy tickets to a match.

Paris

Aer Lingus operates flights from Dublin Airport to Paris. The French capital is constantly buzzing with culture, good food and history. It’s difficult to stand in the presence of iconic landmarks like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe without feeling a sense of awe; the fact that you can walk between most of the city’s big attractions makes seeing the sites simple.

New York

New York City is served by regular flights from Dublin Airport. The ‘Big Apple’ is as fascinating and busy as the movies would have you believe; its diverse nature means that, whatever your tastes, there will be something to suit them in the city. The five boroughs that make up the city all have different things to offer, and it is well worth venturing beyond Manhattan.

London

London’s many landmarks need little introduction. From Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, to Buckingham Palace and Tower Bridge, there is a huge array of important landmarks to see in London.

Budapest

The capital of Hungary has a growing reputation for a top tourist destination. Beautiful old architecture, and attractions such as historical Turkish Baths, ensure that any visit to Budapest will be a culturally rich one.
