Dublin Airport DUB (Aerofort Bhaile Atha Cliath) is located about 10 km north of the city center of Dublin, Ireland, accessible directly via the N9, connecting shortly thereafter to the M50, which in turn connects to the south to N2, N3, N4, N7, N91/92 and N11. Dublin Airport is not only Ireland's busiest airport, but is also among the busiest airports in Europe. With two runways and over 22 million  passengers a year, the Airport is served by a multitude of domestic, international, low-fare and charter airlines, offering direct and connecting flights to all points of the globe.

Two Hotels are on either side of the airport's circle road.

In 2006 Dublin Airport started its 10-year transformation program and some of the improvements are already benefiting its passengers: Pier E and the new kerbs and access ramps were completed in 2009, the new Terminal 2 which is scheduled to open in November 2010, and the Pier B extension and internal road network are to be completed by 2010/2011.

By November 2010 Dublin Airport will have two passenger terminals - Terminal 1 and Terminal 2.  When Terminal 2 is completed, it will contain about 40 concessions for shops, restaurants & bars.  The main retail area will be located inside the Departures Lounge and offer views over the airfield. 

Terminal 1 at present is divided between an Arrivals & Departures levels & a Mezzanine level for mostly concessions. The Departures level as at present gate areas at Concourses A, B & D, and will soon add Concourse E. Each of these areas offers many amenities & facilities expected from a large Airport.  Rental car desks can be found in the Arrivals Hall of the Main Terminal (Hertz, Budget, Avis, Sixt & Europcar).
