Confirm flight details in advance
Provide airline, flight number and exact departure time so the driver can plan pick-up and airport arrival with buffer time.
Pack light and consolidate luggage
Vans have room for standard luggage for up to six passengers but consolidating bags speeds loading and reduces delay.
Plan for road variability
Rural sections can be bumpy after heavy rains—secure fragile items and consider a motion-sickness remedy if you’re prone to nausea.
Use the one-hour free wait wisely
Ask the driver to schedule the free wait for a last photo stop, restroom break or quick snack to avoid rushed transitions at checkpoints.
Government ID & boarding pass (digital or paper)
Necessary for airport check-in and seamless pickup/drop-off.
Light daypack
Keeps essentials close during the transfer and while moving through terminals.
Reusable water bottle
Useful between stops—bottled water is provided onboard but a personal bottle reduces waste.
Motion-sickness medication or wristbands
Helpful on winding rural roads, especially during the rainy season.
