The migration
How Limerick Shannon Direct migrated off iCabbi.
Limerick Shannon Direct runs out of Castletroy with a fleet covering the distinctive Limerick + Shannon operating geography. SNN handles transatlantic Aer Lingus + Delta + United routes generating concentrated arrival waves; Thomond Park rugby fixtures generate Munster matchday surges; University of Limerick term-cycle anchors steady-state demand.
TaxiCloud migration ran over 6 working days. The headline migration feature was SNN transatlantic-arrival pre-positioning logic accounting for the 25 km Limerick-to-SNN distance + US pre-clearance terminal awareness. Drivers, vehicles, customers, SNN airport pricing rules, and historic bookings all imported.
First quarter on TaxiCloud (covering peak Aer Lingus transatlantic season): 24% lift in SNN transatlantic-arrival throughput via AI Copilot 30-40 minute pre-positioning ahead of arrival times; Thomond Park matchday utilisation lifted 18% via fixture-schedule ingest; NTA SPSV quarterly return prep dropped from 3 hours to 12 minutes.
“Shannon Airport is 25 kilometres from Limerick city. iCabbi couldn't pre-position our fleet ahead of transatlantic arrival waves — by the time controllers saw the inbound, Aer Lingus passengers were waiting at SNN. TaxiCloud pre-positions 30-40 minutes ahead. 24% transatlantic throughput lift in the first quarter.”
