An excellent guide, and worth a read even if not planning on flying from Ireland.

My first ex-EU was actually from ORK via MAN with VS. This was a great experience and we all found ORK to be a great little airport. There is not much after security so we used the cafe/restaurant upstairs before security to grab some breakfast. This was the first Sunday of the summer holidays and the airport felt quite busy - there was certainly a queue at security but progressed. Once airside it seemed fairly quite however and there was ample seating. We stayed overnight at the Park Inn. The accommodation was nothing special and we did use the shuttle bus in the morning but only because we had luggage and a five year old in tow. Otherwise I would just walk across to the airport as it is so close. Would not hesitate to return to Cork - a great little city despite being rained on throughout our day there, and worth a visit in its own right.

At the time of our visit the old airport terminal was still standing, which makes the new terminal look so much more appealing. I assume it is still there.

Getting back to the guide, the only additional point that I can make that you may wish to add, is some aerial views/maps of the airport showing the exactly location of the hotels, car park etc.
