Just a wee note about the new bus departure times to/from Derry and Dublin. (and goes via Monaghan)
http://www.buseireann.ie/site/your_j...ressway/33.pdf
There's a bus leaving Derry at 0045 to Dublin, which could be handy if you're stuck for transport to a match.
There's also night time buses to/from Dublin and Belfast. http://www.buseireann.ie/site/your_j...pressway/1.pdf
That's a great wee edition to Ireland's rather poor public transport infrastructure.
And a godsend to skint EL fans who don't want to spend money on an over-night stay ! :)
About bloody time there is a bus you can get home from a game outside Dublin while being able to get a few pints afterwards :cool: .Hopefully this will lead to more routes being the same ;)
Good man Brendy - was wondering what the story was on Saturday coming back from Kilkenny we met a bus in Emyvale with 33 on it.
anyone know of any cheap private companies that go to derry from dublin? ie like matthewscoaches to drogheda and craptown
Whats the latest bus leaving Dublin to Derry coz mite come in handy for me some nite.
Don't think there are any. McGinleys from Donegal don't stop in Derry AFAIK.Quote:

Not sure what prompted this change. You still can't leave the likes of Cork any later than 6ish to head to Dublin.
Aercoach's last bus on the Dublin cork route is at 7pm at both ends. Think they would have a market for later ones though. Superb service btw.

Indeed, it's shocking :mad: :rolleyes:Quote:

The argument given for the night time buses on the Dublin-Belfast route was that it was for people getting early/late flights from Dublin. I assume it's the same reasons for the Dublin-Derry route.Quote:

Through the vast majority of the daytime hours, the Maiden City Flyer from Derry to Belfast is every 15mins. And a luxury double-decker to-boot !Quote:

How much is the bus from Derry to Belfast and how long does it take? Might come in handy some time ;) :cool:
Don't get the 3:45 bus to Derry on a Friday.
It doesn't get you up there for 7:45 as the timetable says. :rolleyes:
More like after 9. :rolleyes:
btw pubs up there close at 11, so you'll be waiting around for a while for the 00:45.
No. They. Don't.Quote:
