For June 13-20, the airport handled 757 movements, which represents an increase of 6.32% compared to the same period, where 712 movements were recorded.
In comparison to 2019 levels, they are ahead by around 12 movements, with this expected to rise week-on-week gradually.
Below is the last four weeks’ worth of data from Dublin Airport:
| Date | 2019 Numbers | 2022 Numbers | 2023 Numbers | Percentage Difference (2023 vs. 2022) |
| May 16-23 | 716 movements | 675 movements | 752 movements | +11.41% |
| May 23-30 | 730 movements | 685 movements | 757 movements | +10.51% |
| May 30-June 6 | 720 movements | 713 movements | 750 movements | +5.19% |
| June 6-13 | 741 movements | 698 movements | 748 movements | +7.16% |
What is clear from the data is that Dublin Airport is comfortable with exceeding pre-pandemic figures. With the utilization of the second runway this is expected to boost numbers further going into the future.
All eyes are on the airport to see how much further they can take these numbers, especially with us being a few weeks away from the July school holidays peak.
Providing that enough flights operate, Dublin Airport could definitely get itself into the 800 weekly movement average.
Other factors, such as the French ATC strikes, could put this in jeopardy as they continue their unionized action.
All eyes are on the Irish capital.
