Enjoyed comfortable coach trip. I had assumed I would qualify for senior citizens pricing? I didn’t realise coach was going to Belfast first before going on to Derry

I was asleep and missed the drop off to Terminal 2 until the bus was already on the way into Dublin. The driver very kindly dropped me off at a bus stop and directed that I could get a bus back into the airport at no charge aftet he cleared it with the controller. The Irish are the MOST hospitable people!
