How to compare airport transfers

  • Families should look for the child-seat option on the provider's form before paying.
  • Note the meeting point the provider gives and the phone number or chat it lists for the day of travel.
  • Check whether tolls, parking and airport fees are inside the quoted price.
  • Night arrivals can carry a surcharge or fall outside service hours, so check the provider's times.
  • Compare the cancellation deadline with your flight's own change rules, so both can still be changed together.
  • Look at whether a quote is for the whole vehicle or for each seat before comparing two prices.
  • Give the flight number where the provider asks, because that is how it learns about a changed arrival time.
  • Find the included waiting time in the terms, and what happens when immigration or baggage takes longer.
  • Count bags as well as people: vehicle classes are sized for both, and oversized items often need to be declared.

Before you book

  • Make sure the name on the booking matches your travel document where the provider asks for it.
  • Complete payment on the provider's own checkout page.
  • Line up the inclusions first; the cheaper offer may simply include less.
  • Official travel advisories are the source for safety and entry information.
  • If free cancellation has a cut-off, set a reminder for it.

Questions and answers

Who do I pay?

The partner on the link. Aurum does not take the fare.

Where do I see today's rate?

On that partner's page. See today's fare there.

Where is the disclosure?

Beside the links, and in full on the affiliate disclosure page.

Which airport transfers providers does Aurum link to?

10: Viator, Welcome Pickups, Amstar, GetYourGuide, Kiwitaxi, GetTransfer, Klook, Intui, Carmel Limousine and Suntransfers.com. Each qualifies through an active link and verified coverage in Aurum's partner database.

Does Aurum run these transfers?

Each transfer is operated by the provider you book with, or by a local company it works with. Aurum compares providers and links to them; it does not run rides.

Is airport transfer coverage the same everywhere?

No. 8 of the 10 providers here are recorded as worldwide; the rest are verified for named countries or places. The "Where" line on each card states it.

Does Aurum show prices for airport transfers?

No. Prices change with dates and demand, so they are shown by each provider at the moment you search, not here.

What if I need to cancel a transfer?

Contact the provider you booked with; its terms for your offer decide whether and until when a change is free. Aurum has no access to bookings.

Is it better to book airport transfers early?

There is no single answer, because each provider sets its own availability. Comparing once your dates are known, and choosing an offer that can be changed, keeps your options open.

What is the Where line on each card?

It is the provider's verified coverage as recorded in Aurum's partner database: a country, named places or airports, or worldwide. It is not a promise that every address inside that area is served, so confirm yours with the provider.

Why is a provider I have used missing from this page?

It may not be an Aurum partner, or its coverage of this place may not be recorded yet. The points on this page apply to any airport transfers provider you compare, listed here or not.

Is this page advice?

No. It is information, not a recommendation. Your own needs decide, the provider confirms the specifics, and professional questions belong with a qualified adviser.

How does a provider get listed for airport transfers on Aurum?

Those with an active link and verified coverage on record for the page. A provider without recorded coverage for a place is left off that place's page.

Does booking through a link here cost more?

When you book through a link here, the provider may pay Aurum a commission at no extra cost to you. The provider sets price, availability and terms, and shows them on its site.

Who do I contact about a booking?

Changes and questions go to the provider, which is the party holding your booking. Aurum holds no bookings.
