Ryan Tubridy has shared his plans for the Christmas break as he winds down after a busy few months.

He said: “I love Christmas. It’ll be a very family orientated Christmas- we’re a nerdy family, shock, so there’ll be Trivial Pursuits and things like that. I love the weather, the walking, having the fire on.”

Some of his classic Christmas traditions include generous pints of Guinness and trips to the cinema after the festive break. He revealed he is going to attend the Muppet’s Christmas Carol in the Stella at some stage.

He also explained that a young woman arriving back from Chicago this morning got a shock upon seeing Ryan Tubridy in the backdrop of her family reunion. Ryan ended up taking pride of place within the family’s photo as a result of the encounter.

Dublin Airport estimates that one million passengers will pass through its gates over the next 11 days. Officials remain confident that flight cancellations and security issues witnessed during the summer will not affect the airport over Christmas.
