A SIXT ride airport transfer gets you to or from the airport on time — connect your flight number during booking and your driver will track your flight and adjust the pickup time automatically.
\n\nHow it works
\nWhat's included when you connect your flight number
\nTraveling with passengers on different flights
\nIf your group arrives on separate flights, book a separate transfer for each flight. That way every flight is tracked individually and every pickup stays on time, regardless of delays or early arrivals.
\n\nExample
\nYour flight lands at 3:00 PM and you want 1 hour and 30 minutes at the airport before your pickup. Enter your flight number during booking and your driver will be ready at 4:30 PM — or later if your flight is delayed.

"},{"text":"Can SIXT track my private flight?","href":"/ride/help-center/articles/track-private-flights/","articleId":"271","content":"Yes, SIXT ride can track your private flight — just provide your aircraft's tail number at booking and make sure your flight is traceable via FlightAware.
\n\nWhat to do when booking
\nWhy the tail number matters
\nThe tail number qualifies your booking as an airport pickup. Your driver can then monitor your actual landing time and adjust the pickup accordingly. You'll also receive additional free waiting time under our booking conditions.
\n\nGood to know
\nAdditional charges may apply if your actual landing time differs significantly from the expected arrival time.

"},{"text":"What is buffer time for an airport transfer?","href":"/ride/help-center/articles/buffer-time/","articleId":"272","content":"Buffer time lets you add up to 2 extra hours to your SIXT ride airport transfer, so your driver waits for you after your flight lands — even if you need time to clear customs, collect your luggage, or take a moment to get your bearings.
\n\nHow it works
\nWhen booking your airport transfer, select a buffer duration of up to 2 hours. Your driver calculates the pickup time from your actual landing time plus the buffer you chose. If your flight is delayed, the pickup adjusts automatically.
\n\nExample
\nYour flight lands at 3:00 PM and you select a 1-hour 30-minute buffer. Your driver will be waiting at 4:30 PM. If the flight is delayed by 20 minutes, the pickup moves to 4:50 PM.
\n\nNext step
\nAdd your preferred buffer time when booking your airport transfer in the SIXT App or on the website.

\n\nWhat you get when you add your flight number
\nPlanning to spend extra time at the airport?
\nIf you expect a lengthy customs process or want time at the airport before leaving, enter the duration you plan to stay during booking. This ensures your driver arrives at the right moment and you make the most of your included waiting time.
\n\nPlease note: If your flight isn't linked to your ride, it won't be treated as an airport pickup, and the services above won't apply.
