Ireland’s Shannon Airport holds unique status as the only airport outside the U.S. able to provide inbound customs and immigration preclearance for business jets and crews. The preclearance process has been considerably accelerated following a decision to permit operators to keep aircraft powered up. The move means that chocks-on to chocks-off procedures can be completed in 45 minutes, a claimed saving of at least 35 minutes over aircraft that have to shut down all power.
