Speaking about the offer Translink’s Brand Manager, Carol Lundy said “The X1/X2 route to Dublin Airport and Dublin City Centre has proved highly popular throughout the year offering passengers a convenient, flexible service to Dublin from Belfast with 32 services every day departing on the hour every hour.

“Our new coaches with luxury leather seating and free WiFi make it easy for passengers to browse the web and access social media as they start their summer holidays.

“With expensive fuel costs combined with car parking charges, the cost of travelling to the airport is often an additional expense for holiday makers. However, customers can make significant savings with the added bonus of an hourly convenient Goldline X1/X2 service, with the X2 arriving at Dublin Airport in only 1 hour and 50 minutes.

“We would encourage more people to try the Goldline X1/X2 service whether they are departing on holiday from Dublin Airport or simply for a great trip to the city - the X1/X2 service offers great benefits for a relaxing and hassle-free way to start the holidays. We look forward to seeing our customers on the cross border service and welcoming many more on board with this fantastic offer to kick off summer 2013”.
