    Can anyone recommend a reliable taxi Co to do an early morning pick up for the airport? Needs to be a people carrier

    Anyone of the local cab company's would do it. I'm in glasnevin and use autobahn cabs. I'm sure you local would be happy to arrange it

    Anytime we ring for cabs they can never guarantee a people carrier so say they'll either send the people carrier or two normal cabs. Pain. In. The. Ass.

    That includes autobahn cabs btw.

    I've used NRC (National Radio Cabs) a few times for early morning airport pickups... usually early, one time cut it a bit close.

    But when I've tried them for corporate bookings they won't promise a people carrier... even though they have this :(

    Always the way - I need people carriers to carry a stupidly large prop in my last job (long story - and I work in IT/engineering...) on all of 3 occasions and I was stuck waiting outside Blanch for a good hour as Lynk had trouble finding any going.

    Got one of the few wheelchair adapted taxis for one of the trips, which means I was probably delaying someone in an actual wheelchair.

    Wasn't aware of the people carrier issue. Always been early when I've used them for very early morning pick ups, granted I haven't needed a people carrier.

    Might be worth contacting one of the specialist minibus hire companies - see would they do a price.

    Prebook on MyTaxi, shouldn't be an issue imo. Haven't used prebook since the switch from Hailo, but never had a problem then.
