Dublin Airport's T2 To Be 'Phased In'
Airlines using the newly built Dublin Airport terminal T2 will begin transferring their services later this month - with travellers seeing big changes as the airport's spanking new multi-million euro passenger terminal is opened on a phased basis throughout the rest of November.
The formal opening ceremony will take place on Friday, November 19th and the first official flight will arrive that day.
The phased ramp-up to full operations will continue during late November and into early December as Aer Lingus, Etihad Airways and the various American carriers transfer their entire Dublin operations into T2.
For a time, flag carrier, Aer Lingus will even operate from both terminals, but has said it will communicate directly with passengers regarding which terminal to use.
Aer Lingus intends to commence its London services from Terminal 2 on November 23rd and plans to operate all its other short haul services from T2 from November 30th.
Etihad Airways plans to begin operating its service to Abu Dhabi from Terminal 2 on November 23, while transatlantic services operated by Aer Lingus, Delta, Continental Airlines and US Airways are planned to commence operations from T2 on December 7th.
But, once the new full US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) system commences operations at Dublin Airport early in the New Year, passengers can expect big changes again - as the latest high-tech security screening comes into use.
Dublin Airport's other US carrier, American Airlines, will begin operating from T2 when it resumes its Irish services next spring.
