Getting Here from the US

Our convenient access to all main motorways from Dublin and Limerick mean that we are just over an hours drive from Cork Airport and just over a 2 hour drive from Dublin and Shannon Airport. All airports offer direct flights from a number of US city locations including Boston, Miami, New York, Atlanta, Dallas, Denver and many more destinations. A huge advantage of travelling back to the US from Ireland is that you will pass through U.S. Preclearance facility in both Shannon and Dublin Airport. They are two of only a handful of airports outside North America that offers this facility. The benefit is that having cleared USCBP, passengers arriving in the US are treated as domestic arrivals, allowing them to avoid immigration queues, pick up their bags and go.
