The Airport Fire Service was first on site.
A huge fire has broken out at Dublin Airport, causing all flights to be temporarily suspended.
Dublin Fire Brigade tweeted a picture of the fire early this morning, which is reportedly restricted to the roof of the hangar.
The Dublin Airport Authority said the blaze was in a restricted area, with no passenger access, state broadcaster RTE reported.
The live arrivals and departures information on the DAA’s website shows that flights were suspended at around 7.25am, with the last flight arriving from Leeds Bradford at 7.26am.
Two planes were inside at the time, both of them short-haul 146 aircraft.
All flights to and from the airport have been suspended until further notice, say emergency services.

Airlines were initially told the airport would remain closed for several hours, possibly up until midday, after operations were cancelled.
