    Good, but VERY expensive. Its just to Shannon FFS, Gobus go to Dublin Airport for €15 adult single one way.

    Limerick to Galway is €12 one way for a student, how can a shorter journey be more expensive?

    Maybe due to the fact the majority of City Link users were students coming or going, from or to, Limerick and they are on holidays. They'd be feeling the pinch for the next 3 months.

    The reason is simple,
    Bus eireann are very slow
    Bus eireann run from 7.05am-8.05pm, which is unsuitable for early flights

    city link is quicker
    they have late night times so you can catch early morning flights.

    its all about competition, city link dont really have any.

    The new times are very very handy though, word of warning, if you wanna get the 3.30am then BOOK IT, very very very busy bus
