CABI is a pre-booked service. There is no meter reading at the end of your journey and no rank to flag us down at — every CABI is agreed in advance, in writing, at a price you have already seen.
How to book
- Send a request at book.cabi.ie, or message us on WhatsApp at 087 372 7944. Tell us where you are going, when, and how many of you there are.
- Abi replies with one fixed price, itemised, usually within 15 minutes and always within 2 hours during operating hours.
- Pay through the secure link in that message to confirm. Your booking is not held until it is paid.
- You receive your driver's name, SPSV licence number and vehicle registration 30 minutes before pick-up, with a live tracking link you can share with anyone you choose.
How far ahead to book
- Airport runs and early starts: at least 12 hours, ideally the night before.
- Weekend nights: as early as you can. Friday and Saturday after 23:00 is the busiest time in Dublin and we will not take a booking we cannot cover.
- Same-day: always worth asking. If we cannot cover it we will tell you straight away rather than leave you waiting.
On the day
Your driver arrives at the agreed time and comes to the door unless you have asked otherwise. You get 15 minutes of free waiting from the agreed time. If you are running late, ring or text the driver — they will wait where they can, up to 30 minutes from the agreed time. After 30 minutes with no contact the booking is treated as a no-show.
If your flight is delayed and we are collecting you from the airport, we track it. Your pick-up moves with the flight at no extra cost.
