Good way to kill 4 hours in Dublin Airport ?
 
I have a 4 hr. layover tomorrow morning before catching my flight to Shannon. Any good ideas other than pulling up a bench and catching a snooze. I assume 4 hours is not enough time to get into Dublin proper and then get back to the airport. Thanks. Rob

If you leave the airport you will need to check back in, Monday morning you will be fighting traffic both ways and risk missing your flight. Stay in the airport, browse Duty Free, there is a nice cafe/canteen. Good food. Enjoy an Irish breakfast - Irish bacon and sausages, scones, and tea....and you'll know why you need to stay longer in the country next time. Safe tavels.

There is a shoe-shine service airside.

Get on a bus to Shannon. By the time your flight leaves Dublin and you arrive in Shannon it'd be close to the same amount of time as a bus trip.

Kidding aside, personally I'd watch the news and just enjoy some down time reading a local paper and sipping on some tea.
