Aircoach 700orAircoach 705X?

The short answer

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The Aircoach 700 reaches the north quays, around O'Connell Street and Lower Abbey Street; the Aircoach 705X does not. Belfast is in Northern Ireland, a different city and currency zone from Dublin.

The Aircoach 700 is quicker: 25 min against 1 h 55. The Aircoach 705X varies between 110 and 120 minutes.

Aircoach 700: Runs all night. Aircoach 705X: hours not recorded.

It runs genuinely around the clock: 43 departures from Terminal 1 between 00:20 and 23:50, hourly through the night and up to every 15 minutes by day. It is the only coach here that does.

25 minutes is to O'Connell Street and 34 to Kildare Street, both from the operator's own overnight timetable when the roads are empty. Daytime traffic on the same road is slower.

A ticket is valid on a standby basis for 12 hours either side of the departure you booked, which is unusually generous if your flight slips.

The service runs every day except Christmas Day.
