There's already a campaign to extend some of the cross county 24 hour bus routes to DAP.

And 'Airport Hopper'

Airport Hopper services end due to financial difficulties (https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2025/0219/1497570-dublin-airport-hopper-services/)

Quote

The airport hopper bus services between Maynooth and Tallaght and Dublin Airport have ceased due to financial difficulties, the operator has confirmed.  Airport Hopper Holdings Ltd told RTÉ News it had to "pause operations" from 10 February, due to the service being "financially unsustainable for a long period of time with passenger numbers on the routes not being sufficient to make the service viable".

... There were two separate airport hopper services to Dublin Airport; one starting in Tallaght and stopping at Clondalkin and Liffey Valley, and a second route running from Maynooth and stopping at Leixlip, Lucan and Liffey Valley.
