On Arrival
Flying into Ireland is relatively hassle-free, although an
increase in traffic over recent years has caused some flight
and baggage delays. Customs and immigration in Ireland is
normal, naturally no contraband items will be tolerated. Allow
at least an hour to 90 minutes or so to disembark, collect
luggage, clear customs and arrange transportation. Most major
hotels will arrange for you to be collected and quality tour
operators will have someone meet you or your group at the
Airport. Visitors arriving will either Rent a car, or travel
to the city centre or their Hotel by Airlink, Bus or Taxi.

service" from one of our recommended companies:Superior

Transport
As a guide Taxis are available from outside the Arrivals Area
of the Airport between 06.30 and 10.30 pm freely but at peak
periods in the morning and evening long queues can develop
so our best advice is to pre book. Outside of these hours
you may find it difficult to get a cab so again we suggest
you pre book. Taxi Fares are about IR£10 (US$15) from
the Airport to the City Centre, the ride is about 20 minutes,
40 at peak times.
Car Rental Desks are located in the ARRIVALS HALL and most
car rental agencies (USE THE LINKS BELOW) are open from 8
AM to 8 PM.
