Further Things That Are Wrong (Part 1)

Having to queue in cork airport to show your passport on arrival. What the fuck

CC @Batigol, sort it out.

Run up to the top flash the passport, tell them I said twas fine and carry on.

This will work at all airports in the world

Animals.

All depends where you came from.
If outside the EU then expect to have to show it.

also from inside the EU as we’re not in schengen

Doesn’t matter where you embark from. All flights queue at two (2) desks and show their passports.

Informative.

It’s those scanning machines that I don’t like.

not cork airports fault, thats down to the BMU

cc @Batigol

Is it the same in Shannon and Dublin?

all the passport screening is down to the border management unit, e it dublin, shannon or cork

They were giving an American couple a right grilling when I got to the top of the queue. I gleaned that the couple are staying in cork for one night then doing Dingle and the ring of Kerry.

probably bored and needed someone to talk to, those lads do 12 hour shifts

Typical Yanks thinking they can just swan in and do what they like. I bet yer man is currently fuming that someone hasn’t dropped off his rental car for him right outside the entrance.

You’ve to show your passport to a detective at the desk in Shannon. Usually a cheery enough fella.

The cork lads are grumpy cunts

Dublin lads are 100% mostly. One lad loves to chat about champions league latest scores if landing on a Tuesday or Wednesday evening.

You have a drugs dog walking up and down the queue while you wait for your passport to be checked in Knock. I always feel sorry for a dog with a sensitive nose at the odours he must pick up with the Mayo roasters coming back from a relations funeral.
