Casement Aerodrome

Does anyone know what bus will take me to the Don from Dublin City Centre??

No 68 Bus

Your best bet would probably be to get a bus to Clondalkin then get a taxi from there.


Regards,

Frank.

Thats great, thanks a million Frank..

You wouldnt happen to know how much a taxi is from Clondalkin to the base??

Is is best to get a taxi from Casement back to Clondalkin on the return trip??

Hi matt,

I've no idea how much a taxi would cost to Baldonnel & back.

Maybe someone who works in Baldonnel can help you out with more specific information?'>

Thanks for the help

Only the occasional 68 bus goes to Baldonnel. Most of them finish at the terminus at Newcastle, over two miles away. Check the timetables for an appropiate 68 bus serving Baldonnel, , and no taxi will be required.

Alternatively, 69 to Rathcoole, and a two mile cab from Rathcoole Cabs to Bal. No cabs known at Newcastle, and the 69 is more frequent.

If you dont drive it maybe better to use a bike!

Hi all
Matt,if you really HAVE to get there,for an interview or such like, break open the piggybank.It'll be cheaper in the end.Failing that, get the 69 to Rathcoole, take the back road from Airmotive and stick your thumb out.Anything passing has to go by the main gate.

Well Matt did you go? did you get piccies for us?

[matt_k]

Yes guys I went..and passed the fitness test  '>  ...Had no camera though and we were vigorously warned to stay away from the hangars and all aircraft manouvering areas!! But the run was done around the runway and a PC-9 landed just as I was coming down the home straight and that just encouraged me to run even faster...and I broke my PB for 1 1/2 miles!!!! I was so happy !!!!!  '>

.............remember, you could be flying those PC-9's soon  '>
