How your airport pickup works

Local taxi rules do not let city taxis collect passengers inside the airport grounds. So we meet you just outside, and we tell you exactly where before you fly.

  1. Book on WhatsApp

    Send your flight number, date, number of passengers and hotel. You get a written confirmation and a fare estimate.

  2. Land and message us

    We follow your flight. If it is late, the pickup time moves with it at no extra charge.

  3. Walk to the bus stop

    The meeting point is the municipal bus stop outside the airport's main entrance gate, about 500 m from the terminal. We send you the location pin.

  4. Ride to your hotel

    Taxi 38 T 1018 takes you straight to your hotel door. The meter runs, and you pay at the end.

The rule comes from Article 21(1)(ii) of the Kayseri Metropolitan Municipality Regulation on Commercial Taxis and Taxi Stands (Council Decision 2025/383). Read the regulation (PDF, Turkish). For departing flights we drop you at the terminal as usual.

Questions travellers ask

Where will I meet my driver at Kayseri Airport?

Under local taxi regulations, city taxis may collect pre-booked passengers at airports, train stations and bus terminals only from outside the site, not from the terminal doors or anywhere inside the grounds. The boundary is the main entrance gate with the security checkpoint, not the terminal building. So we do not pick up inside Kayseri Airport: we meet our pre-booked passengers at the municipal bus stop outside the airport's main entrance gate. The bus stop is about a 500 m walk from the terminal. After you book, we send you the exact location pin and walking directions on WhatsApp, and your driver messages you when your flight lands and guides you if needed. For departing flights we drop you at the terminal as usual.
