Fifteen people in one vehicle, on one booking, at one price. The alternative — three taxis arranged at the counter — means three fares, three drivers and a group that arrives at the hotel over the course of half an hour.
Above fifteen it becomes several vehicles on the same reservation, which still means one confirmation and one meeting point. That is the part that matters with a wedding party or a company offsite: nobody is left working out who is in which car.
| Vehicle | VW Crafter or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter |
| Passengers | Up to 15 in one vehicle |
| Luggage | One suitcase and one carry-on per passenger |
| Larger parties | Booked as several vehicles on one reservation, arriving together |
| One booking | One price, one confirmation, one meeting point |
Who books this
- Weddings — guests landing across a whole day, on separate flights
- Company trips and incentives, where the arrival is on the agenda
- Extended families travelling together to one resort
- Sports teams and tour groups, with kit that does not fit in a van
Arriving on different flights? Book one vehicle per arrival time rather than one for everybody. Each is tracked against its own flight, so a delayed connection does not leave fourteen people waiting for one.
What it costs
Prices below are per vehicle for the standard van, which takes up to 8. The group vehicle is quoted on the next screen once you have said how many of you there are — which is why the form asks for the exact number rather than a range.

Verified against the operator's live system in August 2026. The price is for the whole vehicle, not per person, and covers up to eight passengers on the cheapest option. A return trip is booked as one reservation with two dates.
Per vehicle, one way. For fifteen people the figure to compare is not this one against a taxi fare, but this one against three taxi fares.
What every transfer includes
These come with the fare rather than as extras at the counter. It is the part that separates a booked transfer from a car you find at the kerb.
- Driver waiting at the exit with a sign bearing your name
- Flight tracked in real time — if you land late, the driver is still there
- Private vehicle, direct — never shared, no stops for other passengers
- Fixed price per vehicle — taxes and tolls included, no surprise at the door
- Air conditioning in every vehicle
- Bilingual drivers, English and Spanish
- Child seat on request, at no extra cost
- Travel insurance and GPS monitoring on every ride
Which vehicle for your group
The price is per vehicle, so the cheapest option for four people is the same one as for eight. Pick by how many seats and how much luggage you need, not by how many of you there are.
Up to 8 passengers
Toyota Hiace van or similar
Families and small groups. The best value: the price is the same for two people as for eight.
Up to 5 passengers
Chevrolet Suburban or equivalent SUV
Leather seating and extra legroom, when the arrival is part of the occasion.
Up to 15 passengers
VW Crafter or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
One vehicle and one booking instead of coordinating three taxis.

Where the driver actually meets you
Not at the kerb and not in the baggage hall: past customs, in the public arrivals area, holding a sign with your name. The exact spot depends on which terminal you land in.
| Terminal | Where to look |
|---|---|
| Terminal 2 | The arrivals hall opens onto a covered walkway. Drivers wait past the line of counters, not inside it. |
| Terminal 3 | The busiest exit at the airport. Keep walking to the far end of the barrier, where it is quieter and signs are readable. |
| Terminal 4 | Two exit doors. Drivers meet at the one on the ground floor, after the shops. |
The people who approach you first are not your driver. Between customs and the exit there is a stretch of desks offering transport and timeshare presentations. Your driver stands still and holds a sign; they do not walk up to you and ask where you are going.
Children, seats and awkward luggage
Four things that have to be said at the moment of booking, because afterwards there is no way to add them.
- Child seats have to be requested when booking, at no extra cost. They are not automatically in the vehicle.
- Wheelchair-accessible vehicles exist but are limited — request one well in advance, not the day before.
- Outsize luggage (golf clubs, dive gear, a surfboard) needs declaring at booking, so the vehicle assigned actually fits it.
- Extra stops — a supermarket run on the way to the hotel — are added when booking, not asked for in the car.
How booking works
- Pick the area and your datesThe form above needs three things: where you are heading, when you land, and how many of you there are. Nothing else.
- Choose your exact hotel on the next screenThe list of areas sets the fare. Your specific hotel, resort or Airbnb address is chosen on the following screen, from the operator's own hotel list — including the ones with a name nobody spells right the first time.
- Add your flight numberThis is what makes the driver wait when you land late. Without it, a delay is your problem; with it, it is theirs.
- Confirmation, then the exit doorYou get a confirmation with the meeting point for your terminal. On the day, walk past everyone offering you a ride and look for your name.

I booked their services when planning my vacation in Cancun, the transportation service they offer is excellent! I really enjoyed the trip, plus their drivers are bilingual.Shane C.Published by eTransfers
It was a trip to celebrate our anniversary. My wife and I hired a transportation service from the Cancun airport to our hotel, and the driver's attention was one of the best we have ever received.Ronald W.Published by eTransfers
It has been one of the best trips we have ever made. They were very attentive and received us on time during our arrival. In addition, they treated us in a very good way.Michael S.Published by eTransfers
I found it incredible to have the opportunity of adding stops as an extra service. It certainly helped me go to the store and buy some things before arriving at the hotel, so I would not have to go out again.Sarah J.Published by eTransfers
Common questions
How many people fit in a group transfer from Cancun airport?
Up to fifteen in one vehicle — a VW Crafter or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Larger parties are booked as several vehicles on a single reservation, so there is still one confirmation and one meeting point.
Is group transport cheaper than several taxis?
For a group, normally yes, and by a wide margin. The airport taxi is priced per car at $65–120 USD; fifteen people is three or four cars. One group vehicle is one fare.
Can the group arrive on different flights?
Yes, and it is the right way to book it: one vehicle per arrival time. Each is tracked against its own flight, so one delay does not strand everybody else.
Do you handle weddings and events?
Group vehicles are the standard booking for wedding parties and company trips. The booking form takes the exact number of passengers; anything above a single vehicle is arranged on the same reservation.
Is there room for luggage for fifteen people?
One suitcase and one carry-on per passenger fit in the group vehicle. Outsize items — golf clubs, dive gear, instruments — need declaring when you book so the right vehicle is sent.
