Dublin Airport has been praised for an initiative which has been put in place to assist those who may struggle with sensory issues or additional needs.
The airport sees roughly 33 million people pass through its gates in a normal year.
Understandably, there can be issues for a number of those people, including those who may be autistic, suffer from sensory issues or may need additional needs.
Which is where the 'Important Flyer' system comes in.
Any person who requires assistance can order a lanyard or a wristband for free from Dublin Airport, which they can wear as they progress through the terminals.
It can be shown to any Dublin Airport staff member (Customer Care and Security Screening for example) if assistance is required at security, passport control or any area where someone may encounter queues or crowds.
Others responded to the original tweet with praise for the efforts of the airport
One said: "Have used this in the past for our ASD Son. Worked out so well, the Staff just made it like a normal day. No fuss. No Que, No Hassle. Best of luck on your trip."
Another added: "VIP programme is incredibly helpful for children with additional needs. We flew to the states with our daughter a couple of years ago and the lanyard opened every door for us"
While a third said: "Another reason that Dublin Airport is the best in the world"
