no, rush hour traffic getting out of dublin would cause you problems

FCUK. Thanks

But wouldn't you be well out of Dublin if you were going from the airport? You would be straight on to the motorway, so you would be moving fairly quickly......

5.30 from Dublin airport, I reckon you'd have a shot....

Quick check, 1 hr 38 min according to AARoadwatch

Lads quick question.
I have to work in cork the day of the match untill 3pm. I was going to fly to Dublin on the 4.20 which arrives in Dublin at 5.15 I was going to get a mate of mine who is driving to the match to collect me at dublin airport at 5.30 on the way. Will i make it to Portadown for the match (kick off 7.15 )

IMO you'd have a chance although would be tight, then again I have reputation for "cutting to tight".

If you were starting in dub city centre then of course no chance whatsoever. However the airport is next to M1 which is motorway (traffic have little effect) all the way to Dundalk which i think can be made in 1 hour fine. I think Portadown 85mls from Dublin so probably 35 or so from dundalk.

Would mean 5.30 airport, 6.30 dundalk, 7.15-7.30 portadown. This doesn't really leave any contingency to find your way in Portadown + we got stuck in Dundalk traffic at 5.30 before for 30-45mins (was very nasty).

Thats my opinion for what its worth

Maybe if you arent navigating

I still dont believe it is necessary to Pass the Arc de Triumph three time on the way from Nantes to Beauvais Airport.

Seriously though I would give it a bash, as long as Dundalk doesnt hold you up to much you should be there by KO. I made it up to a place about eight miles from there a few weeks ago in an hour and fifty from Finglas at about half four. Having said that traffic is different every day so if Dundalk is bad could be a waste of a flight.
