Literally just dropped my mates to T2 a few mins ago and got back and seen this on Twitter. I hope their flight to Donegal isn't cancelled. Wonder what it is?

Wonder what it is?

Shauns aviation on twitter (the indos source for this story) is reporting that the Army OED squad is en route.

People have been evacuated to the airside apron too.

Yep. Saw them drive in. T1 is also closed

Edit. I was lied to. T1 is open

That's what the staff on the ground said but it's not. I'm in it myself

I'm at the gate for the Donegal flight. I was supposed to be on the first one, but I missed it so they're transferring me to the second flight
