Cork Airport, from car, through queue and security, to airside in 14 minutes. Still not too bad.

Cork airport is the best place in the world. Bag dropped off, gone through security, duty free browse done and sitting down with a coffee in about 15 mins. Airport is full of Liverpool fans though 🤕

I'm rather fond of Cork Airport. Getting through to the departures lounge is actually very fluid and quick and the folks working in the food and drink sections there do absolutely trojan work to make you feel at ease. It's a good spot.

Cork Airport staff are legitimately fabulous people. Travelling whilst neurochaotic is easy here. Good souls. p.s. They had sunflower lanyards here as well. Total class.

Sauntering off to London for a few days. Cork Airport is one of the best and most efficient airports on the island of Ireland. Going to be seeing Skelleftea's favourite sons, Moon Safari. Sunshine prog in November? Ratherrrrrr.

As always, honour and glory upon the houses of the staff of Cork Airport. What a genuinely wonderful cavalcade of people working here. Nice one. Death stairs notwithstanding, you folks are actually brilliant.
