Connacht
By Air By Train
With Galway airport no longer operating scheduled flights, the best bet for travellers to Connacht is to fly to either Shannon, Knock or Dublin airports. Shannon Airport Shannon is the closest airport to Galway, although is still around 80km from the ground. Flights operate to destinations including Birmingham, Edinburgh, London and the USA. There are regular bus services by Bus Eireann and Galway Bus from the airport, taking approximately 90 minutes. Knock Airport Knock Ireland West Airport in County Mayo is around 90km by road from Galway. This airport is smaller than Shannon but is also connected by bus to Galway in around 120 minutes. Scheduled flights are operated by Aer Lingus, Flybe and Ryanair to destinations including London Gatwick, Edinburgh, Bristol and East Midlands. Dublin Airport If you can't get a flight to either of the above, another alternative would be to fly to Ireland's principal airport in Dublin, 200km from Galway. A good quality road network and regular bus services between the two mean it isn't that much more inconvenient. Buses by Bus Eireann, Citylink and GoBus all run services taking around 3 hours.
Galway Ceannt rail station is located in the City Centre around 2km from the Sportsground. Iarnród Éireann operate regular services to Dublin (2.5 - 3 hours) and Limerick (2 hours).
