Flight radar Dublin Airport
The radar above is centred on Dublin Airport (DUB), Ireland’s largest airport. Click any aircraft for its flight number, route and altitude.
Dublin in short
Dublin is the home base of both Aer Lingus and Ryanair, whose head office overlooks the airfield. A second parallel runway, the North Runway, opened in 2022, and Dublin is one of the few airports in Europe with US preclearance: passengers clear American immigration before boarding. The transatlantic morning wave is a radar highlight: a stream of Aer Lingus A330s heading west over the Atlantic.
Dublin and the UK
Dublin–London is one of the busiest international air routes in the world, and the corridor across the Irish Sea is constantly busy with Aer Lingus, Ryanair and British Airways traffic. On the radar you can watch the conveyor belt of aircraft shuttling between the two capitals all day long.
History
Dublin Airport opened in 1940 at Collinstown; its original curved Art Deco terminal is a protected building. Post-war growth turned it into Ireland’s gateway to Europe and America, and the rise of Ryanair from the 1990s made it a low-cost powerhouse as well.
