Airport evacuation at Terminal 2 due to heightened security
Dublin Airport's top priority is always the safety of its passengers and staff. On Saturday, this priority was put into action as Terminal 2 was evacuated following the discovery of a suspicious object in the security check.
Flight operations at Terminal 2 were temporarily affected due to the evacuation, with several videos of passengers evacuating the terminal being shared on social media. Passengers were asked to follow airport staff to assembly points.
Authorities have identified the owner of the luggage containing the suspicious object, and the anti-terrorist unit is heading to Dublin Airport to assist in the investigation. The cooperation between Dublin Airport, its security teams, and relevant law enforcement agencies is crucial in ensuring safety and investigating the matter further.
In the meantime, flights at Terminal 2 are expected to resume in 30 minutes, but some temporary interruptions may continue throughout the rest of the day. Vehicle access to the airport is restricted, and passengers are advised to consult with their airlines for updates.
It's worth noting that a software problem at the European level is causing some airlines to use manual check-in and boarding processes. Passengers are reminded to arrive early and be patient during this time.
Terminal 2 has been given the all-clear, and passengers will be allowed back in shortly. The airport encourages everyone to stay informed and follow the latest updates from their airlines.
Some features at Dublin Airport may only be accessible for registered users or subscribers, but the airport is working diligently to ensure all operations run smoothly during this time.
The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and cooperation in maintaining a secure environment at airports. Dublin Airport assures passengers that their safety is always its top priority.
