A rail connection to Dublin Airport could be a major addition to the state's transport infrastructure and a huge opportunity for Irish Rail but only if the proposal is realistic in terms of frequency, operational practicality, integration with other services, reliability and journey times.
Doing it properly means more tracks north of Connolly, a station under the main airport terminals and direct services to Cork, Belfast, Killarney etc etc ...
And yes people don't like changing trains for all the reasons stated.
