Plus the line is still a significant distance from the terminal, so need a shuttle to it.
Though it would be great for those wanting to travel via Antrim/Lisburn stations, save having to transit through Lanyon Place.
Bear in mind many people travel from the N and NW and connect with the bus service from Antrim Rail Station
