    I can't see any recent threads on this and I only seem to be getting prices about €35 for a trip to the airport (4am!). Would I get any cheaper does anybody know? Clonsilla/Ongar area

    Thanks.

    It cost me about €30 from Carpenterstown last Friday during the day, it would cost more to go in the middle of the night.

    ah ok so I guess €35 isn't so bad at that time of the day/night!
    Thanks

    I always use the world taxi meter:
    http://www.worldtaximeter.com/dublin

    To give me an idea of potential taxi fares.

    Also, if you're going to book it anyway, might be worth looking at uber:

    They also have an online fare calculator.

    Thanks.

    That's around the same price I pay for an early, arranged call out to the airport

    I use a local taxi guy and he does fixed rates.

    Try ASAP Taxis

    I called a guy that did fixed rates for my area for €27 but he gave me another number to ring and said they'd do it at the same price (Don't think he wanted the 4am call out!).
    I rang them and they said no they don't do fixed rates but just booked them anyway as she said it would be about €28-€32. It was €37.


    Thanks for the numbers-I'll take not for future trips!

    I think if you try pre-book a Hailo taxi, it shows the estimated price.

    Mother booked a taxi to the airport at 4:30am - cost €37
