Airlink is a Dublin-based bus company that provides a quick link between Dublin airport and the city center, and vice versa. Economical and practical, it offers continuous transport between Terminals 1 and 2 and various locations in the city. You’ll have no trouble getting around once you’ve landed in the Irish capital!

The express lines are easy to recognize: green in color, the buses concerned bear the line numbers 747 and 757 respectively. (Take care not to get confused, as one terminates at Heuston Station, while the second goes as far as Camden).
These highly flexible lines run every 15 minutes from Monday to Saturday, from 5.45am to 12.15am. On Sundays, the first 747 bus leaves at 7am and the last at 12.30pm.
Highly efficient, they also come at an attractive price: €6 per trip, compared with €10 for a round trip. It’s an attractive price, so you won’t break the bank as soon as you arrive in Dublin!
In terms of comfort, Ailink buses are pleasant and modern: but don’t expect optimum comfort; these buses are designed for short trips, not long road hauls. In any case, you’ll be well seated, and can even place your luggage in the compartments provided.
And if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask the driver! (Even if your English isn’t great, they’ll make the effort to understand you, and have a reputation for being pretty friendly!).
