How far is dublin train station from dublin airport?

Question

hubby arrives of a flight on christmas eve at dublin airport, just wondering if anyone knows how far is the train station?

Or does the airport have buses that travel to train station???

Answer 1

Shuttle bus at Dublin airport (I think it leaves every 30 mins, but am open to correction)  will bring him to Connolly station, and he can get the Belfast train there.  I am guessing that to get home to Portadown, he will need to get the Belfast  train.  Or he can get the Belfast bus at the airport and not go into the city centre at all.  That's how I would go.

From http://www.buseireann.ie/site/airport_se...

All our Expressway services between Dublin and Belfast operate via Dublin Airport. There are 20 departures daily in both directions operating every hour from 05:00 to 21:00 inclusive and every 2 hours between 23:00 and 05:00. These services are operated in conjunction with Translink.

From looking at the timetable, I see that  the Dublin bus (en route to Belfast)  leaves the airport at 20 mins. past the hour, and that all the buses from 10 pm are cancelled because it is Christmas Eve.
