    I used to commute to Blanchardstown from Carlow and it took me about 75 minutes now that it is all motorway and freeflow intersections.

    depends totally on where your going to in dublin and what time of the day your going, best way is carlow town to the newlands cross 45 mins..... with no traffic delays and doing the speed limit....

    It depends on the traffic at Newlands cross they are the only set of traffic lights between Carlow and the airport. What time will you be commuting at?

    It may be of little use to you, but I got from Dublin Airport to Ballon yesterday in 65 minutes, leaving the Airport carpark at exactly 1.52 P.M. with Mrs Leincar driving.

    i commute from carlow to santry everyday

    i leave at 7:30am and arrive in work at about 8:30 - 8:40am

    but if i left home at 7:45am i'd be in santry after 9am

    cos santry is next to the airport your travel time would be similar
