When you arrive in Ireland for a business trip or holiday, the last thing you want is to be waiting around to get a taxi to your hotel or meeting place.

That's why we at Auto Europe think you should arrange car hire from Dublin Airport, so all you have to do once you touch down in the Emerald Isle is collect the keys to your rental vehicle and hit the road.

This will see you avoiding the queue for cabs and means that you don't have to worry about trying to work out which is the best route to take on public transport to reach your accommodation.

If you need any more convincing about the benefits of hiring a car to pick up at Dublin Airport, read on.

Cut out waiting times

Hiring a vehicle for the duration of your stay in Dublin makes perfect sense, as you won't have to wait around once you have got off the plane. Instead, you will have your own transport waiting for you, to help you get to your accommodation swiftly.

You will find the car hire desks of our main suppliers located within the arrivals halls of Terminals 1 and 2 of Dublin Airport. Typical opening hours are between 05:30 and 23:30 GMT, so you should experience little difficulty collecting your keys.

The airport itself is located 8 miles (12 km) away from the city centre and you can reach it within 20 minutes once you are behind the wheel.

If you're worried that you won't be back at the airport to return your car until after desk opening hours, don't be – simply leave your keys at the drop-off boxes provided.

We recommend that you arrange to hire your car before leaving for Ireland, so all you have to do once you arrive is pick it up. That way, you are cutting out all of the hassle and will swiftly be able to get on with exploring this beautiful country.
