Projects completed with support from the Department of Transport under the Regional Airports Programme, include a €2.5m state-of-the-art security screening system which is halving the dwell time for passengers through security and eliminating the need to remove liquids and electronics, and €5.3m on airfield rehabilitation works. Over the past 12 months, Shannon Group has been busy upgrading the airport experience, and enhancing infrastructure. A further two airbridges will be replaced later this year and in early 2023, with plans to replace the remaining three airbridges during phase two of the project at a later stage.Īirbridges are used to board passengers directly from the airport terminal building onto aircraft without passengers and crew having to go outside. The newly installed airbridge, manufactured by CIMC-Tianda Airport Support in China, arrived at Shannon Airport after a long journey halfway across the globe from Shenzhen. The airbridge is capable of accommodating over 22 types of large aircraft, excluding some smaller regional jets. The first of the three airbridges has just been installed at the airport in a process that took over two days. Shannon Group is focussed on future-proofing the airport infrastructure, and this latest airbridge programme forms part of our investment strategy across the Shannon Airport campus,” said Shannon Group CEO Mary Considine. The installation of the three bridges is part of a greater investment plan which will see the airport’s six airbridges replaced over the next three years. ![]()
