    Nightlink is €6 cash, €5.70 prepaid or €5 on a Leap card.

    The Swords Express also runs until 23:00 during the week and I think it now runs later at the weekend. The service is normally €3 or €4, but it may be more for the later buses.

    Where do I get Nightlink tho? Does anyone know how much roughly it would cost to get a taxi from the city to swords too?

    the nitelink runs from westmoreland street. On the hour every hour (and maybe every half hour aswell, not sure). your looking to get the 41. will take about 40 mins to get home but be aware, its packed full of scummers at times.

    A taxi will cost you anywhere from 25 - 40 euro!

    alternatively you could get the aircoach to the airport and a taxi from then on!
