Although I had read here that Dan Dooley had the best prices for Ireland, we got a better price than their quote, through Hertz. Our travel agent phoned her contact and he came up with a much better deal. A lot of people make all their arrangements by themselves on the Internet, but I go with a travel agent for saving time and money.

It's nice of you to tell me this, because I would panic if I had to be at the ticket counter 2 hours before the flight and I couldn't find the car rental place. It is interesting and helpful to hear how people handle unexpected situations so that they don't turn into disasters.
