Rides That Don't Touch the Airport: Booking a City-to-City Trip

Updated 3 min read

A lot of people only think of us for the Arlanda run, but a genuine share of what we do has nothing to do with the airport at all — a ride across the city, out to Uppsala, or between any two points within our service area. If you didn't know that was on offer, this is the guide that explains it.

How a custom ride is booked

Rather than the airport-to-address flow most people know us for, a custom booking lets you set both ends of the trip yourself — any pickup address and any drop-off, as long as both fall within our service area of Arlanda, Stockholm and the Uppsala region. Enter both addresses, your date and time, and the fixed price for that specific route and vehicle category is shown to you before you pay.

The fixed price works the same way

Exactly the same guarantees apply to a city-to-city ride as to an airport transfer: one fixed price for the whole car, VAT included, shown before you book, with no terminal fee, no night surcharge and no surge pricing added on afterward. There's genuinely no difference in how the pricing or the booking guarantees work — the only thing that changes is that neither end of the trip is the airport.

What it's good for

  • A cross-city trip when you'd rather not manage public transport connections with luggage or equipment.
  • A ride out to Uppsala or Sigtuna that doesn't touch Arlanda at all.
  • Moving between two addresses within the region on a schedule you control, rather than a route that assumes an airport at one end.

Why residents book this way instead of hailing something

Booking a custom ride in advance gives you the same certainty a resident might otherwise not think to look for outside an airport trip — a known price before you commit, a known pickup time, and a driver who already has your route rather than being flagged down or found through an app on the day. For a regular commute-style trip, an appointment across town, or simply not wanting to drive somewhere yourself, it works the same way as any other booking on this site.

There's no need to have flown anywhere recently, or to be planning to — the booking flow treats a city-to-city trip exactly the same as an airport transfer in every way except which addresses you enter.

What every Förare booking includes

The fixed price you see before booking is the price on your receipt — 6% VAT included, whole car, not per person.

  • Flight tracked — pickup follows your live arrival
  • 45 minutes free waiting on every pickup, from your driver's confirmed arrival
  • No terminal fee
  • No surge pricing, ever
  • Free cancellation up to 12 hours

Questions people ask before booking

Do I need to be flying somewhere to book with you?

No — a custom, point-to-point booking lets you set any pickup and drop-off within our service area, with no airport involved at either end.

Does the fixed-price guarantee still apply to a city ride?

Yes, exactly the same as any other booking — one fixed price for the whole car, shown before you book, with no added fees.

What area do you cover for a custom ride?

Arlanda, Stockholm and the Uppsala region — both ends of the trip need to fall within that area.

Can I book a ride between two addresses that are both outside the city centre?

Yes — the pickup and drop-off can be anywhere within the service area, not just central Stockholm.

Is there a minimum distance for a custom ride?

The booking form will quote a fixed price for whatever route you enter within the service area; enter your actual addresses to see what applies to your trip.
