Dublin Airport has two main terminals, and using the wrong terminal detail can create confusion. Before booking a taxi, check your airline, arrival terminal, and pickup instructions.

Why terminal accuracy matters

Drivers rely on clear pickup instructions. If your arrival terminal changes or your group exits from a different area, communication becomes important.

Arrivals and luggage

International arrivals, checked bags, and mobility needs can add time between landing and meeting the driver. Avoid booking a pickup time that assumes you will exit immediately after landing.

For families and groups

Agree on a meeting point before arrival. Keep phones charged and share the booking reference with the person coordinating the pickup.

Extended FAQ

Should I choose Terminal 1 or Terminal 2 for pickup?
Use the terminal shown by your airline or flight itinerary, and update instructions if your arrival details change.
Should pickup time match landing time?
Usually no. Allow time for taxiing, passport control where applicable, and baggage collection.
