Calls to replace Dublin Airport Hopper buses as service ends due to ‘financial difficulty’

Their website is no longer accepting bookings, and any customers who pre-booked a journey will now be refunded.

“We know how important this service has been to the people along the Maynooth and Tallaght routes and we are devastated that we cannot continue providing it to them,” the company said.

“We have truly tried everything in our power to make the service viable – including cutting fares to increase numbers – in an environment of spiralling costs including fuel, tolls, insurance and airport charges.

“Unfortunately, we find ourselves at this point and had to pause operations from Monday, February 10.

“This has been purely down to the service being financially unsustainable for a long period of time with the passenger numbers on the routes not being sufficient to make the service viable.

“All staff have been notified directly. The website is not accepting any new bookings and any customers that have booked will be refunded.”
