A MAJOR Dublin Airport parking hack has left passengers seriously divided. One woman took to TikTok to share the trick with holidaymakers but not everyone agrees. Melanie, known on TikTok as @Melaniemay_ , is a travel content creator with over 500 followers on the platform.
She revealed that even though it may say parking is sold out on Dublin Airport 's website, there's always spaces available so you could show up and get a ticket from the barrier. She said: "Do you know if you're trying to find parking online at Dublin Airport and it says it's sold out that there are always a number of limited spaces available "So you can just drive up on the day and take a ticket from the barrier." Dublin Airport is now entering its busiest season, with an estimate of over a million passengers flying in and out over the summer months.
The cheapest parking available is generally €10 a day, but that could also go up to €40 depending on available spaces and if it is a short-term car park. Melanie added: "Just know that there is always some parking spaces available for those who just want to drive up and take a ticket from the barrier on the day." However, some passengers are seriously divided over the parking hack.
One person commented: "My anxiety wouldn't let me hun." Another wrote: "Does it not cost a fortune though being at short or no notice?" In response, Melanie made a video explaining that it doesn't cost much more for showing up on the day without pre-booking a parking space. She.
