Over 1,000 passengers missed flights on Sunday due to lengthy queues at Dublin Airport, according to the Dublin Airport management body (Daa).

The number could rise as the airport carries out a final tally in conjunction with airline partners with a spokesperson saying the number is already "well over" 1,000.
