Fingal and Meath residents will be protesting at the Dublin Airport roundabout today over night flights, flight paths and the passenger cap.

It comes after the DAA rejected a second meeting with local residents over their concerns.

There have been many complaints about noise levels and flight paths since the opening of the new North Runway in 2022.

The DAA noted that the North Runway no longer opens at night and is closed between 11pm and 7am.

Residents have said they plan to continue holding regular demonstrations at the airport until the DAA agree to meet face-to-face with local stakeholders to discuss solutions.

According to the DAA, the organisation has met more than 10 times with representatives of local communities over the last 12 months.

The DAA also said that Dublin Airport's Community Engagement team has made weekly visits to the homes of residents impacted by airport operations to listen to their concerns and discuss available solutions.

Fingal County Council previously issued an enforcement order to the DAA this July, which ruled that the number of night-time flights scheduled over the summer months amounted to an ‘unauthorised development’.

The airport was ordered to bring itself back in line with its planning permission by reducing the number of nighttime flights at the airport to an average of 65 a night.

The High Court has since issued a stay on the enforcement.
