Transekur’s role
Your chauffeur is confirmed at the terminal's landside exit or arrivals area — the exact meeting point is confirmed with your booking, because it follows each facility's current procedure.
We plan separate vehicles for the Principal, the flight crew and the luggage when a mission calls for it: executive SUVs for the Principal, executive vans or minivans for crew and baggage, all held by one operations desk.
Typical drive from JBQ
Transfer times are quoted with your booking.
