Local Tips

Belfast Airport (BFS) is also called George Best Belfast City Airport. This is important: there are two Belfast airports. BFS is the international airport, located about 19 miles north of Belfast city near Aldergrove. If your airline’s confirmation says “BFS” or “Belfast International”, this is the right transfer. If it says “BHD” or “George Best Belfast City Airport”, you’ll want the separate BHD transfer.

The border crossing is seamless. The route from Dundalk to Belfast takes you across the Irish border into Northern Ireland, but there are no passport checks or stops. Vehicles flow through freely. If you’re not familiar with the drive, your driver handles it as a matter of routine.

Luggage limits are strict on this one. Each passenger is allocated one standard suitcase at the dimensions above. If you’re travelling back from a longer Irish stay with extra bags - or if anyone in your group has sports equipment or an oversized case - flag it at booking to avoid unexpected charges.

Allow extra time if your flight is early. Belfast Airport recommends arriving at least 2 hours before your flight, and the journey from Dundalk takes around 85 minutes under normal conditions. Cross-border traffic can occasionally slow near Newry, so if you’re on an early departure, factor in a comfortable buffer.
