Nobody wants to get off a long flight and wait in line to pass through immigration in the US. Shannon Airport was the first airport in the world, outside of America, to offer full preclearance to passengers flying to the USA. This means passengers can manage all immigration and custom procedures before takeoff. This makes your arrival at the US much faster and easier. At Shannon Airport, your baggage is checked through to your final destination, so there is no need to pick up baggage in between flights. There’s no downside! Faster, easier travelling!
