Question

What is the most effecient way to get the rail station from Dublin Airport, and which is the closet station?

Answer 1

depending where you want to go you will have to go to a different station

for light rail around dublin(dart and luas) and rail services to dundalk and belfast  go to connolly

for most other destinations: kildare, galway, cork, limerick etc you need to go to Heuston station which is further up the quays from connolly but still along the river. Its a half hour walk(ish) from connolly station but the 747 or 748 should drop you there also. Or you can catch a shuttle bus from busaras or aston quay to the station.

The closest station to the airport would be one of the northside stations malahide or pormarnock but its easier to go into the city centre by bus.

The buses all pull up right outside arrivlas and the drivers are usually pretty helpful with directions.

Answer 2

Actually, the bus to get straight to the station is the 748, which goes to Connolly Station. The 747 goes to Busárás, the Central Bus Station.

If your bag is not too heavy, choose Airlink and save 2euros

Answer 4

To where from where?

I find the bus 747 (i think)

or the aircoach (blue bus) the easiest to get out of Dublin airport to the city centre. Ask any of the bus drivers outside arrivals and they will help. Happy travels.

FYI:The lightrail is called the DART. Look for those in Dublin City. There is no train from the airport.
