Anyone gone through Dublin to US?
Customs preclearance on this side sounds great (especially after the hideous queus6 at Atlanta last year)

I went through it travelling to New York last year and it was class.
We had something like a 40 minute period from our connecting flight landing in Dublin to the flight taking off for New York and we made it comfortably. When we did it there wasn’t one person in the queue in front of us.
If we didn’t do it this way I believe there was a queue of over an hour waiting for us when we landed in New York.

While not Orlando, my brother flew to Miami (not via Ireland) and apparently breezed through and having been through at JFK and Newark he thought it was a piece of piss.

Cheers folks. Being reading some reviews of the flights and they all seem pretty positive with the exception of the food.
Got a 4 hour layover in Dublin so will just go for a nice lunch.
Other option was BA via Gatwick but I'll go for Aer Lingus

I’ve been to America 25 times and I’ve never really found customs that bad over there. I don’t feel it’s much different to the length of time it takes after you land back in Edinburgh.

I went through customs in Dublin back in March when I was travelling out to San Francisco - apart from the small propeller jobbie from Glasgow to Dublin, it was a much more pleasant experience than going via London and waiting in the longer queues Stateside.
Having said that, I much preferred the flight back from San Fran via London with British Airways in terms of food/entertainment.

There was talk last Summer of pre-clearance being introduced at several UK airports, but it has all gone quiet so no idea if this is being progressed or not.
