US EditionEnforcement notice for daa over breach of passenger cap
- On Friday, 20 June 2025, Dublin Airport operator DAA received a formal enforcement order from Fingal County Council for exceeding the annual passenger limit of 32 million.
- The cap, set in 2007 as a condition for Terminal 2 and Terminal 1 expansions, was breached in 2023 and 2024 amid ongoing complaints and formal investigations.
- The two-year enforcement notice allows DAA to comply by progressing planning applications to increase capacity or by taking other steps deemed appropriate.
- DAA and Fingal County Council agree the planning system is broken and needs urgent overhaul, with DAA stating the airport is hamstrung and unable to grow Ireland’s connectivity.
- The government pledged to introduce legislation to remove the passenger cap, aiming to resolve uncertainty and maintain Ireland's connectivity amid rising passenger numbers.
