Situated just 10 minutes from the city of Cork in the Republic of Ireland, Cork International Airport is the country’s largest airport. More than three million passengers pass through the airport each year, mostly travelling from the UK and European cities such as Barcelona, Berlin and Amsterdam. It is also possible to charter flights from Cork International Airport to the Mediterranean and northern Africa and find car hire at Cork Airport Ireland (ORK).

Cork International Airport has just one terminal, which has several levels. The terminal received a major facelift in 2006, making it the most modern airport terminal in Ireland. Getting around the airport is easy and the check-in desks are located on the ground floor.

One of the things that makes Cork International Airport so popular is that it has an outstanding range of facilities and services for visitors to make use of. Shoppers can head straight to the Departures area to browse for bargains, while those in need of refreshment can choose between the Wild Geese Bar/Lounge and Café Kylemore, both of which are located on the first floor. There are also many other services and facilities available such as business rooms, banking, car rental, disabled facilities and even an onsite hotel for those who need to take a break.

Cork’s roads are great to drive on as they are in good condition and generally free from traffic jams. This makes car rental the best way to get around, and there is plenty of cheap car at Cork Airport Ireland (ORK). There are nine premium car hire companies to choose from including Avis, Budget and Hertz. There is also a public bus that runs from the airport into Cork every 45 minutes, and a taxi rank, which is located directly in front of the terminal entrance.
