Over 100 flights cancelled at Dublin Airport
A spokesperson for Dublin Airport said more than 100 flights had been cancelled.
Media Relations Manager at daa Graeme McQueen said: "Storm Bram has had a significant impact on operations at Dublin Airport today, with more than 100 flights cancelled by airlines. A further 20 flights were diverted to other airports, although many have since returned - or are in the process of returning - to Dublin Airport.
"Challenging wind conditions made it impossible for aircraft to land and take-off at Dublin Airport for extended periods this afternoon.
"Winds have eased considerably since 7pm, which has allowed for flight operations to resume as normal once again.
"Dublin Airport expects to be fully open tomorrow morning for the busy first wave, however the potential is there for some disruption to airline schedules as a result of aircraft and crews being out of position.
"As always, passengers due to fly tonight and tomorrow should contact their airline directly for updates regarding the status of their flight."
