Thanks very much for the quick reply, and the warning about the traffic. I had been assuming the traffic leaving the city wouldn't be bad in the morning. I'm planning to take a taxi from my hotel in central Dublin (either the Morrison or the Conrad) to the airport. What would constitute a reasonable estimate of travel time to the airport given the traffic?
