Luggage storage

Luggage storage can be found at the counter marked Customer Service Desk, which is open daily from 06:00-23:00.

The storage fee (per 24 hours) ranges from 3 eur to 7 eur depending on the size of the luggage.

ATMs and exchange offices

There is an ICE exchange office in the arrivals terminal with very unfavourable exchange rates.

ATMs at the airport are also operated only by ICE and unless you have a card with a euro account, you can expect unfavourable exchange rates in addition to high fees.

However, in Ireland you can pay for most services with a card, at least airport transport, so you can safely leave your withdrawals to a regular Irish bank ATM in town.

Drinking water

There are free drinking fountains throughout the terminal, in both the public and transit areas, from which you can fill your own empty bottle.
