Dublin arrival lounge?
 
Anyone know if there is an arrival lounge that DL pax have access to upon arrival into DUB? Since flights get in early before most hotel check in is possible, it would be nice to have a lounge for a shower etc to freshen up.

I do not believe so.
Also on the way out Dublin is odd - remember you clear US Customs & Immigration there (downstairs)...

......and then you're essentially trapped in a holding pen. Isn't pre-clearance wonderful <not>? You also have the convenience of needing to arrive at the airport especially early to allow time for the additional lines.

Not as bad as Singapore outbound - as great of an airport as it is, I once missed my flight because you have to be there super-early due to government regulations.

I hated how early those flights were earlier in my career. Almost better not to sleep.

In terms of DUB, I'm not seeing it as on option on DL, and PP (Via Amex) says you need a boarding pass as well.

DUB only D1 passengers get lounge on departure. It's 3rd party

Bummer D1 doesn't get access to the Aer Lingus arrival lounge. I guess thats one thing that Aer Lingus does better for their DUB business class flights.

At least DL has access to the pre-clearance lounge for departures after going through security/immigration.

To be clear only DL, D1 passengers get lounge. STE+ flying DL metal don't.

Well, it's not all bad. Last time I flew out, there was one tiny kiosk serving Guinness, with two bar stools if I remember correctly. :-)

Right. However that's on your own dine. DL only pays for D1 passengers.
