It’s that old nut, Problem, Reaction, Solution. Problem: Dublin airports screening process is flawed. Reaction: Screening will no doubt have to take longer, leading to delays. Solution: What if we introduced body scanners?! Think of the benefit to passengers! Wonderful!
It’s only a matter of time.

If all the security checks are open they will have more time to check everyone..nWhy have all those 15-20 machines when only about 5 is use at a time with long queues..i just dont get it..nIf they are short of staff,i will say there are money qualified people on the dole that can do the job of screening passengers..

Security at dublin airport is a joke, watched 2 weeks ago as a group of lads messing had brought steel knives and forks aboard a flight to spain, they had passed security at check in and then taken them from the restaurant insideand then brought them onboard, the level of security here is questionable at the best of times, watch this space they said it was going on you tube

To Conor Graham,
The knives in the food areas are all only butter knives , i-e not sharp at all, and you should have reported those passengers for stealing those items because in any restruant you do not take home the plates and cutlery with you so going on a flight is no different

I got all the way to Spain with a Swiss army knife I accidently left in my backpack. Yikes
