Wait for your shuttle outside the departure hall.

Our shuttle runs back and forth between our office and the airport depending on the client's arrival. Please provide your flight number a few days before your rental so we can track your arrival time and ensure a smooth pick-up. Now that being said, if you don't see us after 10 minutes, please call us at (+354) 519 4141.

Estimated Arrival Time: Typically, customs and luggage collection take about 45 minutes. You can expect to reach our office within an hour of your flight landing.
