What you can compare for AOD

Airport transfers: Airport transfers in AOD are pre-booked rides between the airport and where you are staying, with the price set at booking. 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. 20 providers are recorded as covering destinations worldwide: Viator, Welcome Pickups, GetYourGuide, Kiwitaxi, GetTransfer, Klook, Intui, Suntransfers.com, Localrent, DiscoverCars, Carla Car Rental and EconomyBookings and others. 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

• 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.

How to compare airport lounges

• If you want a shower or a quiet area, confirm the specific lounge has one and whether it costs extra.
• Compare a single pass with a membership only if you expect several visits in the period.
• A lounge in another terminal may be out of reach, so confirm the location against your flight.

How to compare car rental

• Read what the insurance in the price covers and how large the excess is.
• Look for full-to-full fuel and unlimited mileage, or note what applies instead.
• Most desks hold a deposit on a card in the main driver's name; the terms give the amount and the card type.

How to compare flights

• Check what the fare includes, since cabin bags, checked bags and seat selection are extras on many fares.
• The seller named at checkout is who you contact for changes, so note it.
• Fare rules on changes and cancellation differ widely; open them before you buy.

Before you book

• Compare what is included before comparing the price, since two offers rarely cover the same thing.
• Government travel advice can change; read it when booking and before departure.
• 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.

How Aurum fits in

This site is an affiliate guide that compares travel providers and links to them. It does not operate transfers, tours, stays or any other travel service, and it takes no bookings or payments for them. When you book through a link here, the provider may pay Aurum a commission at no extra cost to you. What you pay and the conditions that apply are decided by the provider. The list comes from Aurum's partner database, which records where each provider's coverage is verified.
