Night-time noise from Dublin Airport flights 'still a concern'

Airport administrator Daa has been at loggerheads with residents in the airport’s surrounding communities over a number of issues in recent years.

Dublin Airport has been told by its neighbouring local authority that the night-time noises its flights produce and their impact on local residents are “still a concern”.

The latest noise action plan for Dublin Airport, published by Fingal County Council on Wednesday, notes that the number of people affected by night-time noise at the hub is greater than it had been in 2019, in breach of a priority requirement of the Noise Abatement Objective (Nao) for the airport.
