    Hi, does anyone know a good value taxi firm to go from Cabinteely to Dublin airport. Am getting a quote of €60+ for trip. 3 am tomorrow morning. There was some literature dropped through the door earlier in the year quoting €35 or so but can't find it. Any help appreciated.

    Could you tell me who you book with? The online facility from 2 taxi firms is quoting me 473! and the average seems to be 60+. Southside Taxis offer a fixed rate but I can't get through. tnx

    I just flag one down on the street, it's a main road and there are always taxis. Then I agree the price in advance.

    God, thats nearly 50% cheaper.
    Cant believe people are still trying to rip us off. Im saving money all over the shop by ringing around.
    Fair play to you

    Why not pick up the Greystones Aircoach at Cabinteely Cross? The single fare is €10, return €17. There's one passing Cabinteely at 02:35 and it goes through the port tunnel so you'll be at the airport by 03:20.

    60 is just crazy, esp at that time when there is so little traffic and in the times we are in when everyone should be glad to earn a few euro.

    Not when you consider the price of fuel!

    He's not taking a rocket. Sixty euro = ripoff.
