Travelling as a group
A family reunion, a group of friends or a team trip: when you arrive together, one vehicle keeps everyone together.
- Mercedes Sprinter (8–16): the natural choice for larger groups, with one driver and one fixed price for the whole vehicle.
- Several smaller vehicles: if your group arrives on different flights, each part can have its own minivan (1–6) or VIP Mercedes-Benz Vito (1–7), so nobody waits for a later plane.
- Luggage: there is no luggage fee, but tell us roughly how many suitcases the group has, so the vehicle is the right size.
- One contact: one person can arrange everything on WhatsApp for the whole group.
At the airport
The driver waits in the AYT arrivals hall with a sign showing the name you give us, for example the group organiser's. Groups tend to come through passport control at different speeds; we track the flight and waiting is free, so gather everyone before heading to the vehicle. The transfer is private, with no shared shuttle and no stops at other hotels. Large resorts often have a main gate and a separate reception building; the driver brings the group to the main entrance.
Booking and the return
Send us the hotel name, the flight number or numbers, the number of passengers and an idea of the luggage. You receive a fixed-price quote within a minute. There is no night surcharge and no prepayment, and cancellation is free. Payment is made in the vehicle, in cash or by card if agreed in advance. If children travel with the group, free child seats are available on request.
You can book the return at the same time. On departure day, ask everyone to be in the lobby at the agreed time; check-out times are set by the hotel, so anyone with a late flight can ask reception about late check-out.

Whichever name you give us when booking, usually the person organising the group.
