Substantial increase in overseas travel last month

Just 11,600 passengers arrived on transatlantic routes and 7,800 departed on these routes.

Between January and August of this year, 3.8 million passengers travelled to and from Ireland, compared to almost 14 million overseas passengers over the same period in 2019 . The majority of passengers arriving into Ireland last month did so by air with 14 per cent by sea. In terms of those departing the country, 84 per cent did so by air and 16 per cent by sea.
