Aircoach Dublin Belfast recent customer reviews
The bus driver who picked me up in Dublin was delightful. He was helpful as a couple other people almost got on the wrong bus, but he made sure they knew where to catch the right one. He was very friendly!

So, I was never informed that the pick up location changed from O'Connell. I missed the bus even though i arrived well before departure time - just from the wrong location. I ended up getting the bus all the way to the airport to catch a departure 1.5 hours after what i had booked.
I understand that Pride was on and the street was closed, but my 24 hour reminder still told me to go to O'Connell.
