"From just EUR 9 one-way when you book online" — a starting price, and conditional on booking ahead rather than turning up.

Luggage. Two bags up to 20 kg each plus one piece of soft hand luggage, included.

Hours. Departures from Terminal 1 run 03:05 to 00:35, so there is nothing between 00:35 and 03:05 — the hours when Aircoach and Dublin Bus 41 are the only things moving. Every 15 minutes through the day, every 20 to 30 early and late.
