Dublin airport to Clondalkin

wheres me jumpa

Just wondering whats the quickest way to get from the airport to Clondalkin via public transport. Can get a Dublin bus into city centre and then out but nearly two hours. How much would a taxi cost? Are there any other routes I could take?

You could get the normal Clondalkin Bus into the city and then get the Dublin Bus 747 which takes about 30min,I think thats your only option on public transport.

Not sure how much a taxi would cost.

Yeah the 747 is fine, its just it says on dublin bus.ie that the Clondalkin trip takes 75 mins!

LUAS from Red Cow to Busaras and then 747 bus - If the LUAS is near you that is.

That 747 route picks up at houston station I think, so the luas / 747 shuttle bus would be your best choice. Btw a taxi to the airport costs about €35 depending on your taxi man and luggage you have could have you paying more.

Ah yes good thinking. A friend is arriving in the airport and it would be madness getting to the airport on a Friday so Im getting him to get out to Clondalkin where I work and then drive home the N7.

Wheres the nearest stop to say Newlands Cross?

Well UrBus goes from Swords via the airport on to Castleknock and stop at Blanchardstown Centre. Could get a taxi/bus from there?

Nearest Luas stop to Newlands Cross is at the Red Cow.

Thanks guys, the Bus to Blanch isnt a bad idea either.

There's the Airport Hopper Shuttle bus, that goes to Liffey Valley, Clondalkin and Tallaght for 11 euro one way and 15 euro return:

I know this is an old thread but it's one of the first hits on Google for buses to Clondalkin from the Airport and I thought others would appreciate info about the shuttle bus! I've only caught it once, at 7am in the morning from the the airport and there was no-one else on board.

Please don't drag up old threads, thanks. Closed.
