    I've got a bit of a challenge, does anyone know of a way from Cork to Dublin Airport between hours of earliest leaving Cork at 10 o clock tomorrow night and arriving dublin around 4.30/5am?

    I don't drive, there doesn't seem to be a bus or train available....is there any method of travel I'm missing out on?

    Basically I have a whole trip planned but can't find a way from Cork to Dublin...any ideas?

    Find a taxi driver and offer him a good price, my Dad has driven people from Dublin to Galway before

    Bicycle.

    I can't even cycle...I'm useless.

    I also forgot to mention that I'm broke so it has to be reasonable price (couldn't be paying a Taxi from Cork to Dublin).

    Ah ffs what more do you want we're offering you suggestions and you're shooting them all down. Learn to ride a bike, rent a horse, pogo. There's a whole world of options out there.

    Hoping someone will offer you a lift?

    I guess you'll have to hitch, possibly with lorry drivers. Let's hope you don't have a pretty mouth, eh? ;)

    Thinking someone will have creative ideas, someone on another forum told me to go into An Post delivieries office and explain my situation, I'm trying to get over to Liverpool v. Spurs, flying dub - manchester return...he said he used to work there and if I got onto a liverpool fan who was doing deliveries I might have a bleak hope....worth a shot anyway.

    Common sense :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,808 ✭✭✭rizzee

    The last bus is 7pm i think and train is 8.30 and I'd be letting friends down badly if I bailed on something that's arranged before 9 at lateset and I'm far enough from the train station.

    Ryanair will fly you there for 50 quid, leaving at 1935.

    Alternatively, get the 20:40 Bus to Waterford (Bus Eireann) and the 01:30 Bus from there to Dublin Airport (JJ Kavanagh). 2040 is the latest you can leave Cork unfortunately.
