Plan the pick-up around your ship
Choose your terminal and tell us how you leave the ship and when your flight is. You get the pick-up time we would book, when you reach the airport and how much margin is left. For embarkation day, enter your landing and sailing times instead.
- 10:30Your flight lands
- 11:30Your driver meets you in arrivals
- 12:05At Terminal H (35 min planned)
- 16:30Approximate all-aboard time
Comfortable. 4 h 25 min of margin before all aboard. Check in at the time your cruise line gives you.
Book the airport to port transferA prudent plan, not a promise: times on the day depend on your ship, the luggage hall and traffic. Your cruise line’s instructions always prevail. Free waiting at the port is 30 minutes from the agreed pick-up time.
On our side
What happens with your transfer
We track your flight number. If it lands late, the pick-up moves with it and the 60 minutes of free waiting count from the actual landing, so you do not pay anything extra for a delay. Your driver is in arrivals when you come out, and drives straight to your terminal.
Message us on WhatsApp when you know about a delay or a new flight number. If you are rebooked onto a later flight, we move the transfer to it.

Questions from the bridge
Will the driver wait if my flight is late?
Yes. We track your flight and the 60 minutes of free waiting start at the actual landing time.
Can you get me to the ship faster?
We drive straight to your terminal by the usual route; the drive is 20 to 35 minutes. We cannot hold the ship: only your cruise line decides about late boarding.
What if I am rebooked onto another flight?
Send us the new flight number by WhatsApp and we move the pick-up to it.
What if I miss the ship?
Your cruise line tells you the options. If you need to travel on to another port, message us and we tell you honestly what we can do.
