Inadequate info re there was a departure from BusAras. No departure info in BusAras. Gate in Bus Aras labelled as ‘Loch Garmain’. White bus that arrived at Gate2 (Wrong gate) had only Slieve Bloom’ on side. Had to change bus AT Dublin port before getting on ferry (What's that about??). WiFi not working. (Got to router ok) Driver did his v best

It was not clear on the ticket that 8.15 was at Busaras so I arranged a lift to the port to arrive at 8.15. Busaras would have been a lot more convenient as I could do the journey from home on my own.

There needed to be more staff at the time of loading. One driver was there to do everything.
