Sellers range from single transfer companies to platforms listing many local drivers, and the vehicles from a private car to a minibus.

Where coverage is verified

Coverage comes from the coverage records in Aurum's partner database, which list the countries, places and airports each provider is verified for. 8 providers are recorded as covering destinations worldwide: Viator, Welcome Pickups, GetYourGuide, Kiwitaxi, GetTransfer, Klook, Intui and Suntransfers.com. 2 providers have coverage recorded for named places: Amstar (in 10 countries; some places excluded) and Carmel Limousine (across United States). A provider is shown on a place page only where its coverage of that place, its airport or its country is on record.

How to compare airport transfers

  • Read how long the driver waits after landing and what the provider charges once that time runs out.
  • Match the vehicle to your luggage, not only your group size, and declare boards, golf bags or wheelchairs.
  • Child seats are usually a request you make at booking; see whether the provider offers them and at what charge.
  • Before you fly, write down where the driver meets you and how to reach the provider on the day.
  • Road tolls and airport access fees are included by some providers and added by others; the quote says which.
  • For a late-night or early-morning arrival, confirm the provider serves that hour and whether a night surcharge applies.
  • Compare the cancellation deadline with your flight's own change rules, so both can still be changed together.
  • A per-seat shuttle fare and a per-vehicle private fare are not the same thing, so compare like with like.
  • Enter your flight number when the form asks for it, so the provider can follow the arrival time it shows.

Before you book

  • Write down the last date for a free change.
  • Last-minute bookings may not be confirmed at once, so leave time.
  • If you need step-free access or other help, ask the provider first.
  • Take screenshots of the offer and terms at the time of booking.
  • A price seen last week may have changed; compare providers at the same time.

The list comes from Aurum's partner database, which records where each provider's coverage is verified.

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.

Who runs the rides on this page?

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.

A provider I expected is not listed. Why?

Either it is not one of Aurum's partners or its coverage here has not been recorded. You can still use the checks on this page with any provider.

Should I treat this page as advice?

No. It is general information to help you compare providers. Confirm the details with the provider, and take insurance, legal or medical questions to a qualified professional.

Why are these airport transfers providers shown and not others?

A provider is listed from Aurum's partner database when it has an active link and coverage on record for the page. Where no coverage is on record for a place, no provider is shown for it.

Does booking through a link here cost more?

The links here are paid, which means the provider may pay Aurum a commission, and your price stays the same. The provider sets price, availability and terms, and shows them on its site.

Who do I contact about a booking?

Use the provider's own support channel for changes, because it holds the booking. Aurum holds no bookings.
