    Hiya Guys

    On Saturday I will be heading towards the Airport. Just wondering what is the best ( cheapest/quickest) way to get from Connolly station to Dublin airport.

    I have been checking online and the Airlink has come up as an option, but 22 euro for a return trip seems a bit pricey? or is that just the price?

    Dublin bus 747 is €7 one way to the airport or €12 return.

    Have found a different link

    Bus leaves Bus aras (747) every 15 minutes, 12 euro return

    41 bus goes from around the corner - go down talbot street onto gardiner street and there are bus stops all along the road there. 4 minute walk form connolly

    Get a taxi , should be about €20 . That airlink or 747 takes forever.

    another option is the number 41 bus, 3.30 single

    would you get a taxi for 20?

    41 is definitely the cheapest option (or walk down to O'Connell street and get the 16)

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    From Connelly the 747 is best option, you get it from the front door of bus aras across the street, it does take ages but from bus aras the worst of the trip is done, from there it's a straight run down the quays and out the tunnel, plus it's the first point where the 747 & 757 join up so u won't be waiting long, avoid the 16 like the plague it goes half way round the world to get to airport, 41 is a ok option but can get bogged down, I drive all 4 of the buses mentioned so deffo 747/757

    The rank down the side of Clerys has a sign saying taxi to the airport 1-4 people €20-25. Think the one opposite the Gresham has the same sign

    You should unless they take a scenic or congested route.
    41 bus cheapest option.
    747 from Busaras the sensible option.

    Both the 747 and 757 serve Busaras as posted above.

    They're by far the easiest option.
