    Just wondering if the €7 daily cap includes the 747 airport bus?

    Adult €7.00 single, €12.00 return

    Child €3.00 single, €5.00 return

    Department of Social Protection Free Travel Passes are not vaild on the 747 service.

    Please note that Airlink return tickets are valid for 3 months from date of purchase if bought on line or when first validated with a prepaid ticket.

    Please note: Capping applies to Dublin City Bus scheduled services including Xpresso. It excludes Airlink, Nitelink and Tours.

    If you have a Leap Visitor Card, the 747 is included. https://about.leapcard.ie/leap-visitor-card

    Pssssst. The 16 is included and only costs like €2.80. Little slower but if you're off peak its grand.

    It used to be max 2.50 reduction if you hit the cap, or only 2.50 goes towards the cap. Something like that. There’s definitely something to do with the cap!

    Has the partial cap contribution for Nitelink been removed?

    If you'd capped out it took 2.50 off the fare from memory. Can't find anything online about it at all.

    I recall seeing that happen. But it's been so long since I got a nitelink, I don't know if it still does that.
