Transfer carriage is a type of carriage in which you fly from point A to point B with a stopover (transfer); in this case, the transfer time is no more than 24 hours.
The transfer point is called the transfer point, and the transfer itself is called the docking. Transfer carriage from transit is distinguished by the fact that the flight from the connecting point continues with a different flight number. It can be a flight of the same airline that performed the transportation to the transfer point, or it can be a flight of another airline.
For reference. Minimum connecting time (MCT) is the time required to successfully transfer passengers and transfer baggage from one flight to another at the transfer airport (from 60 minutes to 24 hours). A connection between flights for more than 24 hours is considered a stop over.
Thus, the difference between a transfer and a regular transfer from flight to flight:
- no baggage is required *;
- it is not required to re-pass all pre-flight formalities *;
- time is saved.
* Provided that the passenger at the airport of departure simultaneously checks in both for the flight to the transfer point and for the connecting flight from the transfer point to the destination airport (two boarding passes are issued to the passenger). In this case, transfer passengers do not need to check-in at the transfer lounges or at the check-in counters in the common hall of the airport, but should immediately go to the departure hall of international / domestic airlines to the boarding gate indicated on the boarding pass or on information boards. More detailed information through check-in can be obtained upon check-in at the airport of departure.
Not all airports have the option of issuing transfer passengers... Please check with the departure airport if your baggage is checked in to your final destination.

How the transfer differs from other transport
compared to a taxi that can be taken on the spot
Minimum 10 minutes faster
Because at the right time the driver will meet you at the airport. And in places like El Prat in Barcelona or Changi in Singapore, if you book a car transfer service, you can leave in half an hour faster. Because take an official airport-city taxi, in such tourist center, is not an easy task.
No language barrier
For example, in Thailand, ask a local driver: "How much does it cost to get from the airport to the train station?" - this is already a task, and if you start bargaining, you can overpay.
The price of the service is known in advance
Official services work according to their own tariffs, and private traders even determine the price according to appearance tourist. In Italy, the difference in price for a taxi to the station can be up to 50%, and the cost of a long-distance taxi is even more unpredictable.
Payment for the service online
If you arrived, for example, in Bali or Colombo, you will have to exchange money in order to take a taxi from the airport to the city. You book a car transfer online and you can immediately pay for the trip on the website.
You need to book in advance
To order a transfer, you need to decide in advance where you will go: specify exact time pick-ups, place of departure and destination when booking. Taxis can be booked for short and unplanned trips.
compared to a taxi that can be ordered through the app
Easy to order child seats, minivan or minibus
It is not always possible to order a car with a pair of child seats or book a minibus for seven people through the online application. In Kiwitaxi, you will find a car of a suitable class and capacity.
You don't have to search for the Internet on the spot
To call a car through the online taxi application, you need to be connected to Wi-Fi at a minimum. And for example, in Cyprus there are no international taxi services at all - you will have to download a local application and spend time trying to figure out how to book a car in it.
Travel with a professional driver
Each of our drivers has a license. If you book a Kiwitaxi service, you do not have to travel with a private owner.
On average, the transfer service is more expensive by 10-20%
It is especially noticeable if you order a car transfer from or to a hotel that is located close to the airport - there is a single tariff for trips within the city. But due to this tariff in cities such as Milan, the trip can be even cheaper.
versus public transport and group shuttle
1.5-2.5 times faster
An individual car transfer to the hotel is a trip along the shortest route and with stops only at the request of the passenger. Plus no queues or transfers.
Leave at any time and even at night
As a rule, public transport stops moving towards the night. It's easier to book a car online in advance, so as not to puzzle over how to get to the airport or hotel when there is no bus.
Comfortable ride
Meeting at the airport at a specified time with a nameplate, a polite driver, assistance with luggage and a clean car no older than seven years are service standards.
Up to 5 times more expensive if you are traveling alone or together
For example, in Moscow there are many options to get from the train station to the airport by public transport without transfers. And the cost of the trip, calculated for one or two passengers, will be 2-4 times cheaper than the transfer service, which you book in advance.
