I’ve got a 12-hour layover in Dublin Airport flying with Aer Lingus, and I’m considering paying around €30 to access a lounge so I can shower and get some food.
What I’m unsure about is the timing restriction. I’ve seen that lounge access is usually limited to about 2 hours and 45 minutes before departure—but does that still apply if you’re in transit?
Can I enter the lounge earlier after landing and just use it for a couple of hours, or do they strictly enforce entry based on departure time even for connecting passengers?
Would appreciate if anyone has experience with this.
