Airport buses reach the centre in 25 to 40 minutes. There is no rail link from the airport.

A Leap card is cheaper than cash fares on buses, Luas and DART, and caps what you spend in a day.

The Book of Kells and Long Room at Trinity need timed tickets, and the early slots are the quiet ones.

The DART coastal train reaches Howth or Bray in 30 minutes for a cliff walk and seafood lunch.
