IAA Allows for Up to 25 Additional Daily Slots at Dublin Airport Next Summer

The Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) has granted approval for up to 25 additional daily slots to be allocated at Dublin Airport, next summer.

The decision forms part of the IAA’s newly-published draft decision on Dublin Airport’s Summer 2026 capacity.

“The proposed parameters define how many aircraft may be scheduled to use Dublin Airport at a particular time. The Summer 2026 scheduling season runs from 29 March to 24 October 2026 inclusive,” the IAA said, adding the additional slots will boost competition at Dublin Airport.

“The proposed coordination parameters will support increased competition by allowing for up to 25 additional daily slots to be allocated by the independent slot coordinator, but without degrading the current service quality,” it added
