how do you sort transfers from airports on a non package holiday ??

...As I don't have a clue - always gone on package deals with travel agents before

Taxi.

Google is your friend or try Martin Lewis' website of you are in the UK think I got a link there last time I organised them.

Taxi - plus ask your hotel/hosts for an aproximate cost so you don't get ripped off

Airport express, public transport,hire car
Where are you going?

I look at local buses and trains. Airports are generally hubs to get just about everywhere.

Or hire a car. Usually cheaper to hire a car away from the airport though. Get a bus or train to downtown and pick up car from there.

Taxi or Uber if the service is running there.

Depends where you're going. Generally though there'll be either a public transport network, shuttle buses running to hotels, or taxi ranks. Don't get in random taxis advertised by touts - stick to the ones at the rank, or Uber type services.

Google Holiday Airport transfers

Massively depends where you are. Uber operates in many places now, but otherwise just Google airport transfers and where you are going, then try to choose one with reliable reviews.

Have a look on Holiday Taxis, we've booked on there for years

Taxi from outside the airport. Maybe google how much it should cost first as you can often find that information on the hotels trip advisor or other forum. Sometimes hiring a car works out cheaper/worthwhile, and again can just be picked up at the airport.

Use a site called holiday extras- that's the one travel agents use when putting a package together for customers

I've booked them through whoever we booked the flight with, Easyjet and BA. It's less hassle when you arrive and there is a driver waiting.

I use hoopa it gives you different options available

Taxi, some hotels have an airport shuttle, public transport, Uber

Resort Hoppa are good. Used them in various countries and never had any problems. You can get private or coach transfers and all reasonably priced.

Bus/train/taxi usually.

thanks everyone

bloody obvious really x10000

We normally hire a car but there's loads of websites for booking transfers. Just Google holiday transfers.

Website called hoppa, they do holiday transfers across Europe from airport to hotels. You can choose coach or taxi & it gives you a choice of prices. Ive used them in lots of Spanish resorts & also in Malta. Always cheaper than a taxi & always been very reliable.

www.hoppa.com is excellent, I've used them half a dozen times and never had a problem

What do people usually do about car seats? We've three under seven, do you bring your own or can you hire through taxi company?

Check with your hotel first - many offer airport pick up and drop off service for guests.
If you just get a taxi at the airport, check the price first or make sure they have the meter running.

We usually hire a car or take a train + taxi if we are in a city.

We always do our own planning. I like the freedom and the price.

Our accommodation has booked for us previously. Very handy in Rome as no way would we have found the hotel without it!
