Dublin Airport Earns €1.46M Net Bonus for Service Quality

The Irish Aviation Authority confirmed that Dublin Airport received a €3.6 million Quality of Service bonus and a €2.2 million penalty based on 2025 performance, resulting in a net price cap bonus of €1.46 million. Bonuses were earned for exceeding targets on ease of movement, wayfinding, baggage trolley availability, free wi-fi, and two satisfaction metrics for passengers with reduced mobility. Penalties were incurred for not meeting targets on washroom cleanliness and ground transport information. Maximum airport charges for 2025 remained at €9.40 per passenger.

Dublin Airport Winter 2026 Slot Capacity Draft Decision

The Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) has published its draft decision on Dublin Airport's Winter 2026 scheduling season (25 October 2026 to 27 March 2027), proposing coordination parameters for slot allocation that would support up to 32 additional daily slots. The IAA is not implementing any seat cap coordination parameter due to a High Court order that prevents consideration of planning conditions limiting combined terminal capacity to 32 million annual passengers. Stakeholders may submit responses to consultation@iaa.ie by 5pm on 22 April 2026.
