What Exactly Is a Private Airport Transfer Service? Everything You Need to Know.

Private airport transfers offer a range of benefits. Many mistakenly think these door-to-door services are only for the rich, however depending on where you are travelling to and from, the cost may end up being reasonable. Plus, when you take in consideration what you are getting, you’ll soon realise the value!

Here are 9 benefits of booking a private transfer service with Specialised Transport Australia.

1. Personalised Experience – The beauty of a private transfer service is that your transfer itinerary will be completely personalised to your specific needs. For example, if you need to make 5 stops on the way to the airport to pick up your travel crew, your driver will plan out the route before they arrive so everything goes smoothly and you arrive at the airport with plenty of time for celebratory drinks at the airport lounge!
2. Experienced chauffeurs – Chauffeurs from some of the best transport operators in Brisbane, like Your STA, are very experienced drivers and can navigate even the most challenging of logistics.
   From flight delays to roadblocks, your chauffeur should be able to guide you through that while minimising stress.
3. Highly Reliable – Any time, day or night, your private transfer service will be there. Well, at least that is a guarantee that Specialised Transport Australia (STA) can make – one of Brisbane’s leading private transfer specialists. We guarantee our pick-up times, and our chauffeurs are instructed to arrive 10-15 minutes early to your booking. I’m sure you’ve been personally affected by taxis or rideshare services simply not turning up, or the driver cancelling at the last minute. This won’t happen with an STA private transfer service. A good chauffeur will pre-plan the trip route and be aware of any issues that may delay the journey, with an alternative route plotted if necessary.
4. Luggage Handling – When booking a private transfer car service, your driver will take care of all your luggage for you. They will take it from your doorstep to the boot and ensure it gets unloaded efficiently at the other end. If you have additional equipment with you, such as wheelchairs, our drivers will provide any assistance you require.
5. Baby Seats – Travelling with the family and need a baby seat or booster seat for the kids? When booking a private transfer service with STA, these can be safely installed in your booked car service so that’s one less thing to worry about!
6. Range of Vehicles – Depending on your style preferences, number of passengers and budget, you can book a range of vehicles suited to a private transfer service. These include luxury sedans, SUVs, people movers, mini buses and more. Your STA has a large fleet of vehicles to suit every need.
7. Clean and Comfortable Experience – A private airport car service should be immaculate, and vastly more comfortable than public transport, rideshare or taxi service. Good chauffeurs take great pride in their vehicles – how they are presented, how they run, and how you feel when driving with them. They aim to impress.
8. Hygiene Aware – All professional drivers in Queensland are required to have done some hygiene awareness training.  All STA drivers are formally trained in COVID-19 Hygiene Awareness and Quarantine Infection Control. Our vehicles are also sanitised at the end of each shift, and periodically cleaned after each trip.
9. Meet at the Airport Gate Service – Some of the additional perks to our private transfer service is the ability to meet their international passengers as they clear customs at the airport. Domestic travellers will be met as they arrive to collect their luggage. It’s always fun seeing your name on a board held by a friendly chauffeur. Whether you are returning home or arriving at your travel destination, the experience a private chauffeur will provide will be second to none.

Hotel Shuttle Bus services are offered as a more economical convenience for guests, and provide an inexpensive alternative to booking a private chauffeur service or relying on a hire car.

Brisbane transfer operators such as Specialised Transport Australia manage a popular airport transfer service, or airport shuttle bus service, to and from the Brisbane Airport to major airport hotels such as Novotel Brisbane Airport, Ibis Brisbane Airport, Pullman Brisbane Airport and the Brisbane Airport Conference Centre. These participating hotels will assist their guests to book a seat on any of the regular transfers for a reasonable fee. With added luxury services such as baggage handling, air conditioned luxury buses, and friendly and experienced drivers, you’ll feel like you are travelling in a private service for a fraction of the cost.
