    I'm a bit pissed, because i frequently see single persons being picked up by 10-seater buses or similar.

    now we will be flying from Dublin next Saturday, we need to get to Patrick's quay before 5. with 4 people and 4 bigger suitcases a corolla won't do. but not a single taxi company a call can guarantee a bus? they always send 2 taxis, which means i pay double. what the f?

    how can i make sure i get one of those mythical buses that don't seem to exist when i need them?

    You need to get the direct contact details for a taxi not call a company. Most taxis even those who work for a company have their own cards they hand out with their direct contact.

    If you mean 5am the Biggest issue will be getting one who is working at that time I’d say.

    I use a guy called James a lot, reliable and a good clean minibus but not sure he will do 5am. Worth a call though, I'll PM his number

    Between the extra charge for a minibus etc you wouldn't end up paying much more than it would cost for 2 regular taxis anyway OP, they love slapping on extra charges anyway.
