    The timetable seems impossible. Dublin Airport to Deansgrage in 15 minutes even via the port tunnel and at night doesn't seem right.

    I took it from Shankhill last Sunday. 45mins, as stated on timetable - brilliant. Only two of us on it though, so not exactly profitable!

    I imagine it is stated optimisticly to ensure in never leaves early.

    I tried this bus this morning. It was the 4am service. Very comfortable - like a mini aircoach. It got to the airport for 4:55 (no traffic of course). I figured out that their timetable is correct for Bray-Airport but all the intermediate times are wrong for Airport-Bray. As these are set-down stops the times are not that important. Airport-Tunnel-Deansgrange takes 30 minutes not 15 minutes.

    Even still it is hopelessly optimistic for certain departures with the traffic from Blackrock onwards and 10mns from Southern Cross to Shankill via Bray town is very unlikely at anything but the small hours.

    I passed one the other day on Strand Road heading towards the Airport at about 5.10pm. Presumably this was the 4pm from Bray (4.55 Airport) and from the traffic in front of it I can't imagine it got through the East Link before 5.30, near enough 6pm before it would have arrived at the Airport.

    Yes, their daytime timetable looks like rubbish.
