Booking a Förare Ride: Route, Time and Flight, Pay

Updated 3 min read

If you've never booked with us before, it helps to see the whole process laid out before you're halfway through a form on your phone wondering what comes next. It's three steps, no account required, and each one is quick if you have the right details ready.

  2. Step two: time and flight
  3. Step three: pay
  4. What happens after you've booked
  5. How long the whole thing actually takes

Step one: route

Enter your pickup and drop-off — for most trips, that's Arlanda on one end and an address in Stockholm or Uppsala on the other, though point-to-point trips within the service area work the same way. Choose the vehicle category here too, based on how many passengers and how much luggage you're actually carrying — see the guide on choosing a vehicle category if you're unsure which one fits.

  • Have your full destination address ready, not just a neighbourhood name
  • Know roughly how many bags and passengers, including anything oversized like a stroller or skis

Step two: time and flight

Set your pickup date and time — remembering that it's always Stockholm local time, see the guide on booking from a different time zone if you're arranging this from abroad. If you're flying, add your flight number here: on an arrival, this is what lets your pickup follow your actual landing time rather than a fixed clock time, so it's worth adding even if you're not sure it will change anything.

  • Flight number, if you have it — it can be added later if you don't yet, see the guide on booking without a flight number
  • Any notes worth flagging now: a door code, an oversized item, a mobility need — see the guide on what to write in booking notes

Step three: pay

The fixed price for your vehicle, route and any extras is shown before you pay — this is the final figure, with 6% VAT included, for the whole car, not per person. Payment is by card, and other methods where eligible. Once payment is authorised, you receive a booking confirmation with a reference — that's the point your contract with us is formed.

What happens after you've booked

You'll get a confirmation and, closer to your pickup, your driver's name, phone number and licence plate. If your plans change, free cancellation applies more than 12 hours before pickup — see the guide on changing a booking for what can be edited versus what needs a fresh booking altogether.

How long the whole thing actually takes

With your details ready — the destination address, roughly how many bags, and a flight number if you have one — the three steps genuinely take well under two minutes for most travellers. Most of that time is typing an address, not deliberating over choices, which is deliberate: the form is built to get you to the fixed price quickly rather than make you compare options endlessly.

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, 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 create an account to book?

No — booking only needs your contact details for that trip. See the guide on booking without an account for the full explanation.

What if I don't have my flight number yet when I book?

Book without it and add it once you have it — see the guide on booking without a flight number for how that works and what it means for tracking.

When do I see the final price?

Before you pay, at the end of the three steps — it's the fixed price for the vehicle, route and any extras you've chosen, VAT included, for the whole car.

How do I know my booking actually went through?

You receive a booking confirmation with a reference number the moment payment is authorised — that confirmation is the contract being formed.

When will I get my driver's details?

Before your pickup, once a driver is assigned — you'll receive their name, phone number and licence plate.

Book your Arlanda pickup

Enter the address and you will see the price for the whole car before anything is paid. No account needed.

  • One fixed price for the whole car, 6% VAT included, shown before you pay.
