Private Aviation Arrivals: Can You Book a Pickup?
Updated 3 min read
Arriving on a private or chartered flight is a different kind of arrival from a scheduled commercial one — different facilities, a different exit, and often more flexibility on timing. If that's your situation, it's worth talking to us directly before booking rather than filling in a standard arrival form and hoping the details line up.

Why this is worth a direct conversation
Our standard airport booking flow is built around scheduled flights and their published, trackable arrival information — a private or chartered flight often doesn't appear in the same public data, which matters because flight tracking is central to how a normal airport pickup is timed. Rather than book blind and hope it resolves itself, contact us with your actual details and we'll confirm what's possible and how best to arrange it.
What to have ready when you contact us
- Your expected landing time, as precisely as you have it, since standard flight tracking may not apply.
- Any details about which part of the airport you'll be arriving through, if known.
- Passenger count and luggage, the same as any other booking, so we can confirm the right vehicle category.
- A contact number that will actually reach you on the day, given that automated flight-status updates may not be available for this kind of arrival.
What stays the same once it's arranged
However the arrival itself is tracked and confirmed, the fundamentals of the booking don't change: one fixed price for the whole vehicle, agreed and shown to you before you pay, with a licensed driver and no hidden fees added afterward. The difference with a private or chartered arrival is only in how we confirm your timing, not in what you're actually booking.
If your trip is for business, let us know and we can set the booking up with the company receipt option from the outset, rather than adjusting it after the fact.
Building in flexibility around an irregular schedule
Private and chartered flights often have more flexible, less publicly fixed timing than a scheduled commercial service, which can work in your favour if plans shift — but it also means clear, direct communication matters more than it would for a standard booking. If your expected landing time changes, even by a wide margin, tell us as soon as you know rather than assuming the original arrangement still holds.
The same applies to the return leg, if you're arranging one — treat each leg of a private aviation trip as its own conversation with us, since the standard automated tracking that handles this for scheduled flights isn't available in the same way here.

Questions people ask before booking
Can I book a transfer from Arlanda's general aviation facilities?
Contact us directly with your expected landing time and details before booking — private and chartered arrivals often fall outside our standard flight-tracking process, so we confirm arrangements individually.
Will flight tracking work the same way for a private flight?
Not necessarily — standard tracking relies on published commercial flight data, which a private or chartered flight may not appear in. Give us your expected landing time directly instead.
Does the fixed-price guarantee still apply?
Yes — once arranged, the same guarantees apply as any booking: one fixed price for the whole car, shown before you pay, with no added fees.
Can I book this through the standard online form?
Contact us directly first, since the standard arrival flow assumes trackable scheduled flight information that a private arrival may not have.
Is this treated as a business booking?
It can be — if you'd like a company receipt, mention that when you contact us and we'll set the booking up accordingly.
