Best coach option from Limerick to Dublin Airport

Comhrá

Anyone know what's the best option for getting a coach from Limerick City to Dublin Airport, please? Travelling in June.

I've used the Green Bus to get to Dublin a few times and I can't fault it

Takes you non-stop and direct to the airport.

Eir eagle every time changing buses in the red cow with the green bus really sucks

Eire Eagle is more spacious also and no stop at all on the way.

I got the eir eagle bus from Dublin airport very recently and it was absolutely spot on. Just under 2 1/2 hours. Very comfortable journey.

Eireagle is an excellent service and I would recommend it. Competitive price also, which helps.

Only issue with me (as I am lazy) is you have to book it. I would prefer the green bus (which runs every half hour) and change at Red Cow. You have to walk, what, 10metres, and wait, what, 10minutes max. No problem. But yeah, hauling the bags out of the bus and into the other can be a pain, but sometimes the driver will assist.

Drop off point is also good.

My wife swears by Eireagle. Non stop, toilets and water on board apparently. The green bus (Dublin coach) requires a change at the red cow I think

It also depends on your departure/return times.
Sometimes the Green Bus Timetable works out better, especially if you are coming back late at night.
Other than that Eireagle would be my 1st choice.
Same Price (for a return ticket), no changing at the Red Cow (sometimes the Bus coming from Dublin city Centre is fairly full and you are not guaranteed a Seat), Eireagle buses are usually newer and more comfortable, and I've used the Green Bus 3 times to travel to Dublin....on 2 occasions they broke down on the way out of Limerick.

They have a dep from Dub Airport at 23.59 the night I fly home, landing at 22.50 so I should be good with Eireagle. They seem to get the best recommendation.

Thanks all.

I noticed the car park is quite small so was thinking the Kilmurry Lodge.

True, it's quite small there and also it is fairly open. The Lodge is a bit more secluded so your car might be safer there. Although I've left my car in the Hurlers and never had any issues.

I am looking for direct non-stop journey from Dublin airport to Limerick City.

Is it still EirEagle?

Any other more frequently run direct bus service please?

I see green bus needs a change at red cow.

Thanks

Honestly, get the eireagle. Last time I missed it by 10 mins I went for the green bus, ended up spending 90min stuck at the red cow, could have hung out at the airport instead and been home sooner on the eireagle.
