Travel
Belfast
has an International Airport, linked to the city centre by a regular
bus service running every half hour, as well as the George Best City
Airport (from which you can take the train to Botanic Station; the
station is called "Sydenham'' and "Botanic" is the third stop). A taxi
from the
City
Airport
to the Department costs about £7.
Belfast
can
also be conveniently reached by train (every two hours) from Dublin
Connolly Station. There are many low fares from a number of locations
in Europe to
Dublin

,
and there's a shuttle from the airport to the Main Bus Station
(Busáras) near Connolly. There are also direct bus services from
Dublin
Airport
to the City Centre of Belfast every half hour.
