Late Dublin-Sligo Bus?

GvidoR

Any chance there's a Dublin-Sligo bus that runs between midnight and 6 AM?

You are out of luck, the last bus from Dublin is 11pm from Busaras.

Agh. Bus Eireann leaves at 11:20 PM from Dublin airport but that's still a little too early as I have a flight arriving at 11:45 PM. Don't know what's the best way to go.

Woah, €240 is a bit much. Petrol + tolls + parking will cost me around €80 in my car where as it would be just under €22 with the bus. The saving is not exactly huge, but could go towards some food and other things while I'm away.

No buses I'm afraid till next morning.

Not being critical, but I would always check onward transport options before booking a flight.

My other options were getting another airline (+€120 or more) as Ryanair only has one flight to and from Riga per day, or having a layover in another airport, such as Liverpool - but in a case like that I'd have to pay twice for the same baggage and stuff.

Try get yourself a cheap hotel in Dublin for the night? E.g. Clifton Court on Eden Quay is showing as €65 a week from now.

I've been considering a hostel or something yeah. It would have to be something under €40, otherwise I'll just drive up with my car, pay for parking and stuff.

The bus to enniskillen departs the airport at 12:20am. I know its not Sligo, but its closer!
