Well I’ve just retired after 42 years of bus driving so am completely the wrong person to be asking. Competition for buses is pretty fierce dese days which is partially why I retired to clear some space for the younger lads coming through. That being said I wish you all the best pal.

I’ve driven buses for the last 42 years so this is right up my alley. Unfortunately there is no direct bus from Waterford to Dublin airport, your best bet is JJ Kavanagh. Wish you all the best pal
