NDWDave Aug 2017 11:38pm, 15 Aug 2017 4,220 posts	0 NDWDave It is a bit like with the Eurostar where you can go through customs and passport control before getting on the train. You arrive without needing to go through the absolute hell that is US homeland security. You do it before takeoff at least. aerlingus.com
