Airport travel

To the airport with a lot of luggage

Lots of cases? Then an estate car or minibus taxi is sent.

Luggage is the single most common reason a carefully planned journey falls apart. A saloon car takes about three large suitcases comfortably; beyond that, you need a bigger vehicle, not optimism. Tell us what you are carrying when you book and the right car is assigned automatically.

Special luggage

  • Skis and snowboards: long items that need a minibus or estate.
  • Golf clubs: one bag fits an estate; two or more need a minibus.
  • Bicycles: only in a minibus, and usually partly dismantled — ask first.
  • Musical instruments: tell us the size so we plan safe space.
  • A folding wheelchair or rollator travels in the boot.

Booking with luggage in mind

The booking form asks separately for large suitcases and smaller bags. Be honest with the numbers: if you enter four or more large suitcases, or six or more smaller items, we automatically plan a minibus. Under-reporting luggage is the one thing that can genuinely put a ride at risk on the day.

How booking a taxi with Taxiritje.nl works

Prices are based on the actual road distance in kilometres between your pickup address and your destination, so you always know the amount before you book. Payment is online by card or iDEAL, and you receive a confirmation by email with the driver details, the pickup time and an invoice with VAT for business trips.

You book online in a few steps. Enter your pickup address with house number and postcode, add your destination and choose the date and time. The price you see is the price you pay: it already includes luggage, tolls, parking at the airport and waiting time, so there is no meter running during the journey and no surcharge at night or at the weekend.

Reservations are possible up to three hours before pickup, and you can book a one-way trip or a return in the same booking. For flights you enter your flight number; we then follow the actual landing time and include up to 80 minutes of free waiting time at the airport. For a pickup at a home or hotel address we include 15 minutes.

  • Fixed price per journey, confirmed by email before the driver is assigned.
  • Sedan or estate car for 1-4 passengers, minibus for 5-8 passengers.
  • Extra stops along the way can be added while booking.
  • Changes and cancellations online up to 24 hours before pickup; call 085 060 7086 within 24 hours.

Frequently asked questions

What if I bring more luggage than I booked?
The driver may not be able to take it all, or extra costs may apply. Change the luggage count in your account beforehand — it takes a moment and avoids a problem at the door.
Is luggage charged separately?
No. Luggage is included in the fixed price; it only affects which vehicle we assign.
