Wondering how to store luggage in Dublin airport? I got you covered. Dublin airport is pretty far from the city – which means, there’s rarely any need for you to store your luggage in the airport.
You can always take a taxi / bus – go to the city and store the luggage there.
If you need to store luggage at Dublin Airport, it’s definitely possible. The simplest choice is to use the airport’s baggage storage facility, which is available in both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2.
Baggage Storage Facility: Terminal 1
The baggage storage facility in Terminal 1 is located in the Arrivals Hall near the Airport Information Desk. The opening hours are Monday – Sunday, 5 am till 9 pm, but the luggage storage should be available 24/7.

Is this service worth it?
From what I’ve observed, travelers who prioritize comfort, flexibility, and convenience are the ones who make use of baggage storage services. Both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 at Dublin Airport offer easily accessible baggage storage facilities right inside the terminals, allowing travelers to conveniently drop off or pick up their bags before or after flights.
Security is also a top priority. Dublin Airport has excellent security measures in place for all types of baggage, whether carry-on or checked. Stored items are closely monitored and secured, with access restricted to authorized personnel only.
Travelers really appreciate these services, so they can get quite busy. It’s often a good idea to book in advance to ensure you secure a spot.
Booking in Advance
You can usually store your luggage on the spot, particularly during quieter times. However, during peak travel periods, it’s a good idea to book in advance to ensure there’s space available, especially for larger items or group storage.
I will give you my personal recommendation. If I were you – and if I am in Dublin for more than 24 hours, I wouldn’t bother keeping the luggage in airport. Yes, you might not have a place to stay and might move around from Belfast to Dublin etc – but still, keeping it in the city or literally anywhere else will cost you less.
The only exception is if you have something really really valuable to store. By all means, go for it then.
