It appears that the €1 fares only apply to routes originating in Galway

Galway to Dublin Airport

Galway to Shannon Airport

Galway to Cork Airport

Galway to Clifden

These are all advertised on the Citylink Homepage

I have tried it out and it is definitely possible to book return journeys such as Galway to Dublin and Dublin to Galway for €2

You may need to play around with different coach times to get the €2 return fare.

It is also possible to book singles originating in Dublin to Galway.

Based on this I presume that the fares work either direction on the routes.

whats the wifi like? Is it any fast?

Just booked Dublin to Galway there and back for €2. I think you have to book two Singles rather than a Return. When I put in a Return, it never came up with €2, usually €10.

Thanks to the OP

is it free wifi or do you have to pay extra?

What car can get you that far on that little petrol? I want one! :P

Another thing that I have noticed with this deal is that you should not book kids tickets. Book them as adults.
If you book kids fares they come up as normal price, while adults can get the €1 fares.

A newish diesel van! Technically it's saving me diesel money, not petrol money!! :P

Cork

I often use their Cork to Limerick service - it is far superior to Bus Eireann.

A 7.00pm departure from Cork would be nice.

But I always find Citylink better value and better comfort.
