The Daa has said its first early morning wave of departures today has run very efficiently and has pledged that passengers flying over the weekend can have confidence that they well get through check-in on time.

Kevin Cullinane, Group Head of Communications with the Daa, said the airport has had a very busy morning. However, they do not anticipate a repeat of the chaotic scenes of last weekend.
