how many hours before flight should we be at cork airport

seefin

We haven't gone away in about 5 years - was before online check-in. I know before you'd have to be at cork airport 2 hours before to check in etc but is it the same as only have to go through security . Flight is at 6 tomorrow evening.

An hour before is plenty.

My experience of flying from Cork would agree, 1hr prior should be fine. Quick airport to get through

Bear in mind traffic as 5pm can get busy but as its weekend shouldn't be as bad.

The main concern is planning for getting to the airport on time... It's really a hit or miss if you're coming from City Center. As some people have stated, 1 hour tends to be enough to get through the airport and to the gate but I'd still say 2 hours just to account for potentially getting stuck in traffic.. And if there's no traffic, you have some extra time to grab a bit of food and coffee before the flight.

24 hours at least

As said above, 1 hour is usually loads.
530-7 on a Sunday evening is probably the busiest time up there at the moment tho. If your flight is at 6 then your probably one of the first flights out so you'll be gone thru before majority of the rush.

45 minutes to an hour if just carry on baggage. Add on 20/30 minutes if checking in a bag just in case.
