Dublin Airport is eerily empty these days but some of the bustle is expected to be back when international travel officially resumes on 19 July.
But as many of us have not stepped foot in an airport in at least 16 months, airlines like Aer Lingus say passengers need to be aware of how air travel has changed.
Gary Cooley, Director of Ground Operations for Aer Lingus at Dublin Airport, said there will be longer queues getting through the airport because of the additional documents and checks now required on people leaving and arriving into the country.
He said well before departure people need to check the entry requirements for the country they are travelling to on the Department of Foreign Affairs website.
