# MAP Travel Ltd: Agent-Direct Score D (40.5%)

Site: https://maptravel.ie/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/comparetravel.ie
Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
MAP Travel Ltd is hard for agents to use.
Some AI assistants are turned away by the website of MAP Travel Ltd. It finds no menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds no link to book or order online.

## What to fix first
- **No ticket link on the website.** (+15 points) Agents find no link to follow on the site. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so an agent can find it. Add a ticket or booking page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No tickets and prices found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what does it cost and when' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with tickets, times and prices as text and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Live fetches as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.
