Senator Emer Currie has raised concerns over capacity, leading to the airport's parking prices increasing.
The Fine Gael Senator says the airport is under severe pressure this May Bank Holiday weekend, adding record passenger figures are set to be hit throughout the summer.
According to the Senator, “a search earlier this week of Dublin Airport’s website reveals that for passengers travelling for a week in early June from Sunday to Sunday, parking costs as much as €163 in the short-term car parks in Terminals 1 and 2".
In stark opposition to Dublin's €163, parking in Shannon for the same dates can be obtained for between €54 to €66.
Senator Currie notes that Dublin's parking shortage "was exacerbated by the closure of Quick Park long-stay car park which has a reported 6,000 spaces".
