    There isn't. Your best bets are:

    And bus to Amiens Street / Talbot Street and get a 747 / 748 (€6, but you can also use a daily/weekly/monthly/annual bus ticket) from Busaras. This is an express service.

    And bus to Amiens Street / Talbot Street and get a 41 or 41b (~€2) from Lower Abbey St. This is an local service.

    thank you Victor.
    So take a taxi is probably the best things to do.

    Is the AerDart bus still running from Howth Junction?

    Would be handy if you're near Raheny station.

    Dart to Sutton and then 102 to Airport

    would be better than going into the city in all likelyhood although DB give a journy time of 70 minutes from sutton to the airport

    if your not going to take the taxi option

    Or you could take the DART and catch the 102 from Malahide Station. Just check timetables first!!

    Yep, that's work. Just be warned that it's nearly 40 mins from Malahide to the airport - I took the 102 route recently and weaves all over Swords before eventually ending up at the airport.

    Also, if you do take the 102, remember that as it is a DART Feeder service, you can buy a through ticket at Raheny Station to Dublin Airport, rather than paying twice!

    Similarly, you can buy a ticket on board the bus at Dublin Airport to Raheny DART Station.

    Allow about 15-20 minutes for the bus to get to Malahide Station from Sutton Station if trying to figure out what train to get.

    if you are near the kibarrack side of raheny you could get the 17a up past the northside shopping centre - at least then you are going more or less cross town. the route intersects with the bus route to the airport.
