In the lead-up to the festive season, Dublin Airport has decided to capture these intimate moments of joy and reunion, and it's no surprise these videos have won over the hearts of thousands of people online.
Two people stood behind the camera are Dana Baker and Graham McQueen from Dublin Airport's social media team.
They've been speaking to The Happy Pod's Holly Gibbs.
And these videos have gone far and wide.
What has the response been like?
Our daughter, Alma, our grandson, Aaron, our grandson, Rain, and our granddaughter, Erin.
Their grandchildren have never been to Ireland.
Our daughter is 14 years in Australia.
Oh, so excited.
Getting overwhelmed now.
Give each other a big hug.
And how does it make you both feel that people are getting emotional watching these?
When I was watching them, I was looking at the comments and people were saying that it had them in tears watching these really emotional reunions.
Sometimes, to be honest, I'm there with the camera and I'm trying to wipe away the tears so that we don't miss the reunions.
It makes me feel really happy and also for the people themselves.
We had a mom last year who collected her daughter and her son on the same day and I was there for both of them.
And afterwards, she sent me a really nice message just saying that, you know, it really made her Christmas and she now has that memory forever.
I'm Maria and I'm here to greet Niall who's coming home for Christmas.
First time in 17 years.
What's been the most memorable interaction that you have captured?
