Shannon Airport Hoping To Build On Momentum Of Over 10% Increase In Passenger Numbers

The latest report from the Irish Tourism Industry Confederation found Shannon's 8.8% increase in passenger numbers compared with 2025 was the highest of any Irish airport. Meanwhile, Shannon's 10.9% passenger growth year-to-date is more than double the growth recorded at Dublin Airport in 2026.
