Passenger number 20,000,000 this year has walked into the Arrivals Hall at Dublin Airport.

Roma Chang from Donaghmore, County Tyrone, landed at just before 10am this morning on a United Airlines flight from Washington.

She was greeted with flowers, champagne and a holiday gift voucher for €3,000.

Siobhan O'Donnell, Communications Manager with Dublin Airport said it is a significant milestone.

"This is the first time that we've exceeded the 20 million number of passengers in one year [since] 2009", she said. "So it's great to be able to mark it today."
