Complete travel coordination and logistics for productions across Ireland.

Scroll

Travel logistics for film production in Ireland encompass the planning and coordination of international flights into Dublin, Shannon, and Cork airports, Irish Rail and Bus Éireann connections, ground transportation, accommodations, visa processing, and equipment shipping. Ireland's compact size enables efficient movement between Dublin's urban locations and the rugged western coastline, though rural road networks require local knowledge.

We manage production travel logistics across Ireland from initial planning through daily operations on location. Our team coordinates international flights, Irish Rail bookings, hotel arrangements in Dublin and regional towns, ground transport including vehicles for remote coastal and countryside locations, visa applications for non-EU crew, and equipment clearance through Irish customs.

On Location

Dublin Airport and Cork Airport crew gateways, Aer Lingus/Ryanair charters, CTA Common Travel Area movement to Belfast, and Wild Atlantic Way road transport for productions from Ardmore Studios to Skellig Michael

Here is how this works in practice. Irish travel logistics turn on three gateways and a dense web of regional connectors. Our logistics desk routes inbound crew through Dublin Airport (DUB). Ireland's primary global hub with daily long-haul service from Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Boston, and Toronto via Aer Lingus and the US preclearance site that lets cast and crew clear US customs in Dublin before boarding. This includes and Cork Airport (ORK) for productions anchoring at Ardmore Studios Bray (Vikings.

Here is the short of it. Penny Dreadful, The Tudors, Excalibur, Braveheart, Pierce Brosnan Bond), Ashford Studios Wicklow (Vikings six seasons plus Vikings: Valhalla), or Troy Studios Limerick (Foundation Apple TV+). Shannon Airport (SNN) handles Wild Atlantic Way shoots from Cliffs of Moher through Kerry to Donegal, while Knock and Donegal regional airports cover Mayo, Connemara, and Slieve League scouts. We set up Ryanair, Aer Lingus, British Airways, and Lufthansa group bookings with Section 481 records in hand. Route private charter through Weston Executive and Cork Aviation, and book Iarnród Éireann rail packages from Dublin Heuston to Cork. Galway.

Limerick, and Belfast Connolly for crew movements that beat the M50 traffic.

Here is the breakdown. Cross-border movement to Northern Ireland is friction-free thanks to the Common Travel Area. The bilateral plan that predates the EU and lets Irish and UK nationals. This includes plus most production crew with valid Schengen or UK visas. This includes cross between Dundalk and Newry without passport checks. Our team still pre-clears non-EEA crew through DETE work permits and UK Tier 5 Creative visas before Game of Thrones-era productions at Titanic Studios Belfast. The Paint Hall. Linen Mill Studios Banbridge, Tollymore Forest, Castle Ward, Downhill Beach, or the Cushendun Caves.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. We charter coaches for unit moves along the Antrim Coast to the Giant's Causeway and Carrick-a-Rede, schedule Stena and Irish Ferries crossings from Dublin and Rosslare to Holyhead and Cherbourg for heavy-vehicle moves, and book lodging blocks at Dylan Hotel Dublin. The Merrion. The Shelbourne. The Europe Killarney, Ashford Castle, Adare Manor, and the Merchant Hotel Belfast for principal cast.

Here is how the picture comes together. Daily call-sheet integration means weather windows on Skellig Michael, Achill Island, Aran Islands, or the Burren get tied to ferry departures and Wild Atlantic Way road transport in real time. With EUR-GBP rate exposure managed across two banking systems.
