Bad news if you’d planned to get away from the snow.
Ryanair has just announced that it has suspended all flights in and out of Dublin Airport.
All flights for the rest of the day have been cancelled, it said.
The onset of heavy snow and ice on runways and treacherous flying conditions have forced the airline to make the decision.
All customers who are affected by the cancellation will be notified of their options via an email or text, Ryanair said.

The airport itself appears to be operational, though many flights have been cancelled.
Passengers are told to check with their airline.
It’s also advised that anyone whose travel plans have been disrupted by the weather will not be charged for the extra car parking hours.
Things look similarly bleak at Cork Airport where a number of flights have been cancelled.
Again, it’s best to check with your individual carrier for updates.
