Be sure to have a large card with the town name you want to go to spelt correctly and shown to oncoming drivers, when at a port or a national road.
If you can get to the Applegreen service station before the M1 business park (53.537758,-6.213606) way after Swords. From there, all the cars headed up north, and I barely waited 3 or 4 minutes to get a ride straight to Belfast. (Experience based on a single try the day after the centennal rebellion anniversary)
If you want to travel quickly from Dublin airport towards Cork or Limerick, you should do the following. Take the 'Dublin Coach' service from the bus depot towards Portlaoise (ticket costs 5 euro and trip takes 30 minutes). Ask the driver nicely to drop you off at the bus stop on the motorway near the '''''An Poitin Stil Bar'''''. The bus driver should help you, especially if you keep your bags on you and not in the side compartment of the coach. When you get off the bus, you walk up the motorway (the path can be found via the bar car park) for 5 minutes until you reach a petrol station on the left hand side. There is a toll booth after Port Laoise (Irish town 100 km away). The road divides in two in the direction of Cork and Limerick just after this facility. You can always ask somebody to drop you at the booth if they are not going the whole way (Cork bound car, but you want to go to Limerick, etc.).
