Frequently Asked Questions

View all FAQs
How do I book an airport taxi in Sri Lanka?

Book directly through any verified provider listed in our directory. Most accept WhatsApp bookings, online forms, or phone calls. We recommend booking 24-48 hours before your flight to guarantee availability, especially during peak season (December-March and July-August).

What if my driver is not at the arrival gate?

If your driver isn't visible after exiting customs, call the dispatch number provided in your booking confirmation. Most providers track flights and drivers wait in the airport meet-and-greet zone holding a name placard. Allow 15 minutes after baggage claim before flagging an issue.

Can I book a return airport transfer?

Yes — most providers offer round-trip discounts of 10-20% versus booking two one-ways. Specify your return flight when booking and the driver will track that flight. Cancellations within 24 hours of departure may incur a fee, depending on the provider.

Can I request a child seat or baby seat?

Most reputable providers offer free child seats on request. Specify the child's age and weight when booking — infant carriers, toddler seats and booster seats are usually available. Some smaller operators charge LKR 500-1,000 per seat.

Is airport taxi available 24/7 for early or late flights?

Yes. Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) operates around the clock and so do major taxi providers in our directory. Late-night and pre-dawn pickups (between midnight and 5am) sometimes carry a 10-15% surcharge.

What is included in the taxi fare in Sri Lanka?

Standard fares include the driver, fuel, vehicle, road tolls and basic mineral water. They typically do NOT include food stops, side trips, parking fees at attractions, or driver tip (10% is customary for good service). Always confirm what's included before confirming the booking.
