Where chauffeurs meet passengers
at Dublin Airport.
Dublin Airport has two terminals (T1 and T2), 10 km north of the city via Junction 2 of the M1. Chauffeurs meet passengers in the arrivals hall of the relevant terminal after customs. T2 handles long-haul including Aer Lingus transatlantic, Etihad, and Emirates. T1 handles most short-haul European, Ryanair, and the British Airways shuttle. Drop-off and pickup set-down zones sit in front of both terminals; longer waits use the short-term car parks within a 2 minute walk of either terminal.
Practical tips for DUB.
Set-down or short-stay
Set-down zones are quick only. For meet-and-greet, use the short-term car park and walk in. VIP parking sits 2 minutes from the terminal door.
US preclearance is a quirk
Dublin has US Preclearance for some routes (departing, not arriving). For arriving passengers from the US, customs is still completed at Dublin.
Irish-language names
Pre-load names with fadas (á, é, í, ó, ú) correctly. A digital sign renders them cleanly where a hand-written one often does not.
Common pickup types.
Aer Lingus transatlantic, T2
US or Canada long-haul arrival. Chauffeur with the name on a tablet at the arrivals hall after customs.
Short-haul European, T1
Ryanair or KLM short-haul. Quick meet in the arrivals hall, straight to the short-stay car park.
Wedding party transfer
Multi-driver fleet meeting a family group, names colour-coded across drivers via the optional Colour Themes upgrade.
