No.
They run on Sunday nights on bank holiday weekends (using the regular mon-wed schedule) but not on bank holiday Mondays.

Depends on your route I guess. Check what it says for Sundays under the timetable.

Usually Sunday times operate on Bank Holidays.

7N, doesn't run on Sunday's so I suppose it ain't on tonight.

No nitelinks operate on normal sundays.

ah the 7n. the best night link around

John R, you were wrong, the last 7N flew past me last night while I was waiting for a taxi. Was I pissed off? Yes, not your fault though I presumed they were off too.

I was out the sunday night just gone by and there were no nitelinks

It is a very poor service. There should be proper night services in Dublin. It is ridiculous that scheduled services stop at 11:30pm. Even midweek, there are still thousands of people in town wanting to get places. There is no shortage of taxis, as we were often told. The only reason there are long queues at taxi ranks late at night is because the buses that brought thousands of people into the city all evening have nearly all gone back to their garages. There are many flaws in the Nitelink service, but I won't go on.

what i don't like is the gap between last bus and nitelinks

from 1130 till 1230

i mean i often what around if i just missed the last bus but sometimes i saw just fook and spend 15e on taxi!

they collated somes of the routes now the 31n mon-weds actually goes the 29n route and there's no 29n....

which is quite confusing so many ppl on the bus ... "**** you gone the wrong way", they don't tell when you get on.... don't think they ever advertised it...

Yes, that is all true. Then they only go outbound and not in towards the city, so you can't get one into town or across the city if you want. They only take people on a certain stops, but not all like the regular services. So you often have half-empty buses, getting emptier as they go out, passing willing and paying customers with out letting them on and then coming back into the city not taking any passengers. Ridiculous, but true.
