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

• Waiting time after landing differs between providers, so read that line before you book.
• Count bags as well as people: vehicle classes are sized for both, and oversized items often need to be declared.
• If you travel with children, check whether child seats can be requested and whether they cost extra.

How to compare airport lounges

• If you travel with family, look for the lounge's child and guest conditions.
• Some passes reserve a place and others are subject to capacity; the terms say which.
• Check what happens to your payment if your flight changes.

How to compare car rental

• Read the rules for one-way rentals and for taking the car across a border.
• Photograph the car at pickup and at return, and keep the fuel receipt.
• Extras are priced per day at many desks; add them up in advance.

How to compare flights

• Before paying, check the official entry requirements for every country on your route.
• Compare nearby dates and airports where the site offers a flexible search.
• Results can mix airports of the same city, so read the airport code as well as the city name.

Before you book

• Read the cancellation and change terms shown at checkout, which are the ones that bind the booking.
• Note the billing currency; your bank may add a fee for a foreign-currency charge.
• Keep the confirmation email and any voucher where you can open them without a connection.
• Only the provider can change a booking, so contact it directly.
• Recent reviews say more about current service than an overall score.

How Aurum fits in

Aurum Transfers is an affiliate guide: it compares providers and links to their sites. It runs no travel services and handles no bookings or payments for them. The links here are paid, which means the provider may pay Aurum a commission, and your price stays the same. Prices, availability and terms are always the provider's, shown on its own site. The list comes from Aurum's partner database, which records where each provider's coverage is verified.
