My 72 year-old mom and I are planning to purchase the DoDublin Card online, but it can only be redeemed in Terminal 1 (or at the DoDublin office downtown). We arrive in Terminal 1 (AA), and we'll need the use of the card soon after arrival to our hotel. The downtown location is not convenient to our Ballsbridge hotel. Does anyone know how much time I should allow to get from one terminal to the other (and back)? I did check the terminals online, and it appears that it wouldn't be a bad walk (I would leave my mother with the luggage and go on my own), but I'm not sure if the walkway would easily lead to the Arrivals Hall of Terminal 1, where the voucher can be redeemed at the Travel Information Desk. By the way, we're planning to get the DoDublin card (35 Euros), since it gives 72 hours of public buses, the HoHo green buses, Airlink, and a couple of free tours. However, we won't be using Airlink, we'll instead need to get AirCoach, which stops in front of our hotel (Airlink doesn't, and it would be complicated).
Thanks!
