Hello,
I'm thinking of booking a nighttime flight from Madrid to Dublin, slated to get in around 11:30 pm. That late, I'd prefer as straightforward a way to my lodgings as possible. I'm assuming I can get a taxi at the airport, but is there any kind of shuttle service that goes to individual hotels? And, if so, would it be significantly less expensive than a taxi? The ones I'm finding online go to various streets, but not to requested stops.
Thanks,
Caroline
It's the "hassle free" part that's going to be the issue for your late arrival.
This link shows a listing of the various bus and coach companies that service the airport. Some appear to offer 24 hour service to the city center: http://www.dublinairport.com/gns/to-from-the-airport/by-bus-or-coach.aspx
Question is - how much are comfort and convenience worth to you? If it was me I'd just pony up for a taxi and enjoy the door to door service.
Would also suggest that you confirm the late check-in with your hotel or B&B to avoid any unpleasant surprises after midnight.
Thank you both for your replies. I think I'll just opt for the taxi. If I had found a convenient, significantly-cheaper option, that would be one thing, but in this case, a taxi seems more than worth it.
