Your chauffeur will meet you inside the domestic or international arrivals hall at Christchurch Airport, holding a name board with your name clearly displayed. Once you’ve collected your luggage and cleared customs (if arriving internationally), you’ll find them waiting in the public greeting area just beyond the barriers. They monitor your flight in real time, so even if you land early or late, they’ll be there.
What if I’m arriving on an international flight?
International arrivals exit into the main terminal after clearing customs and biosecurity. Your chauffeur waits in the public meet-and-greet zone immediately beyond those doors, name board visible, usually near the information desk or coffee kiosks.
How will I recognise my chauffeur?
They’ll be holding a professional name board with the name you provided when booking. Our chauffeurs are employed directly by chauffeur.co.nz, wear business attire, and will assist with your luggage as soon as you make contact.
What happens if my flight is delayed or early?
We track every flight in real time, so your chauffeur adjusts their arrival automatically. There’s no need to call or text — they’ll be waiting whenever you land, whether that’s two hours late or thirty minutes early.
Do I need to walk out to a car park to find the vehicle?
No. You meet inside the terminal first, then your chauffeur escorts you directly to the vehicle waiting kerbside in the pick-up zone. The Mercedes E-Class, V-Class, or Sprinter you booked is the one that arrives — no surprises.
Can I get a price for my Christchurch Airport transfer before I book?
Yes. Visit chauffeur.co.nz/book, enter your pickup and destination — whether that’s Fendalton, Merivale, the city centre, or further afield to Akaroa — and you’ll see the full GST-inclusive fixed price before you confirm. No meter, no surge, no guesswork.
Fixed prices, NZD, GST-inclusive. No surge, ever. The vehicle you book is the vehicle that arrives, driven by a chauffeur we employ — trained by us and accountable to us, not an app contractor who can decline the job. The chauffeur — since 2002.
