Dublin Airport Car Parking Shite
March 22, 2010 at 4:51 pm
UPDATE on 27 October 2010: happy to report I’ve just used this site to successfully book parking. They’ve fixed it up and it’s now working as it should. Carry on….
I’ve been experiencing problems with this site for a year now, and now I’ve lost my patience waiting for them to fix their piece of shit site. It’s a simple booking engine but it never works.
It never works for me on Firefox 3 – I encounter this sometimes with .asp sites.
When I shimmy on over to Safari – it takes ages to download and at least 2 or 3 tries to get the booking page to display so I can key in my days.
Don’t whatever you do choose the calendar if you’re trying to book for a weekend because the big security badge obscures it:
But when you select the dates and hit the quote button, all you get for your troubles is a database error message.
Is this site developed by the same shower who did the eflow one? And how long more do we have to wait until Dublin Airport get their asses into gear and fix the site? It’s been broken for a year now.
If they are serious about making money from parking, it’s a bit of a no-brainer to have a site that’s not shite.
Top Tip For Dublin Airport Parking
Park your car in the free IKEA car park which has loads of spaces and is about as near to the airport as the long term blue and considerably closer than some of the hotels who are offering themselves up as airport car parking.
A taxi from IKEA to the airport is about €8.

Ye I had problems with the DAA website as well. The only thing about parking in IKEA is that a taxi man will tell you to **** off, as he has to queue for an hour and a half to get a fair and then you say the second exit down the M50 please. No chance.
I book with Airport Parking Site Ireland. They have nearly all the info there and all the prices for the cheapest options.
