Easytrip celebrates 3m milestone

This week, Easytrip celebrated its 3,000,000th transaction at the DAA taxi management system at Dublin Airport.

Easytrip's automated vehicle management technology at Dublin Airport has helped improve the management of taxi journeys through the airport by monitoring and controlling taxi flow.

The new system was introduced in 2011 following the opening of Terminal 2. It ensures timely allocation of taxis at taxi stands for customers at arrivals.

Out of around 1,500 taxis who are permitted to work at Dublin Airport, taxi driver Gerard Rooney became the driver to mark the 3,000,000th transaction in his Lexus.

He is pictured with Ciara O'Brien, General Manager of Easytrip Ireland, and Ivor Maleady, Landside Transportation Manager at the DAA (Dublin Airport Authority). To celebrate the milestone, Gerard was presented with a weekend away as part of the Easytrip Escapes offering.
