Taxi vs Private Transfer
Many travelers choose a private transfer because it removes uncertainty.
With a taxi, you might wait in line if multiple flights land close together. You might also need cash, and luggage space can feel tight for families.
With a private transfer, you keep full control:
You confirm your pickup in advance
You receive driver details before arrival
You ride in a vehicle that fits your group and luggage
