Shannon Airport have recently released a video series highlighting the improvements that are being made to the airport, presented by various members of the airport team. In the first half of 2025, over 1.04 million people chose to fly from Shannon, marking a 7% increase year-on-year.
To meet this growing demand and continue providing a pleasant airport experience, they’ve launched a transformational €30 million investment programme. This is set to reshape Shannon Airport with significant enhancements that prioritise passenger comfort, sustainability and regional growth.
Here’s what’s underway:
- A new 4,800 sq ft extension to Gates 1–5
- Ireland’s first on-airfield solar PV farm
- Renovations to immigration and baggage halls
- 1,000+ additional car parking spaces
The four videos in the miniseries below show the plans in action.
