Best way to go from Kinsale to Dublin airport?

I was looking at the bus schedule but getting all kinds of confused. I see Air Coach runs from Moody Cafe on lower Glanmire Rd in Cork to the Airport. Would it just be easier but more expensive to take a cab there and catch that bus. Not sure where the bus stop from Kinsale into Cork would leave us. If anyone knows an easier way please let me know. Thank you.

The bus from Kinsale runs out to the Railway Station.
If you plot that on Google maps you will see that is just a short walk back down the street from the Air Coach stop.

If you want to take a taxi for ease, so be it, but I don't see the need.

The only thing is that the Kinsale Bus arrives at the Railway Station at xx.57 and the aircoach leaves at xx.00 so you will have an hour to wait.

The train to Cork leaves at xx.25 and takes 2 1/2 hours. So it is as fast, if not faster, to take the train to Dublin Heuston then the airport bus from Heuston. That would probably be true even with a smoother connection bus to coach.

Thank you for the reply. Google maps mislead me earlier and sent me to a stop further away. I see now the bus from Kinsale can leave me either at the railway or bus station where there are a couple of options. The hour wait on the bus may just be a nice break to stretch my legs. Or then there's the train option. Thanks again.
