Prices are for a pick-up in central Rangiora and cover the whole vehicle, not each passenger. Your exact fare is calculated from your real pick-up address when you book, so a rural address a few kilometres out will differ slightly.

Comparison figures are indicative, based on typical per-kilometre rates for the Christchurch market, and exclude rideshare surge pricing. They are a guide, not a quote from those operators.
Christchurch Airport charges every vehicle a $8.00 access fee per visit to drive into the terminal area, and most operators bury it in the fare. We let you choose: pay it for a door-to-door drop, at $72.22 total, or meet us at the Orchard Road bus stop just outside the paid area for $64.22 and skip the fee entirely.
On a Wait and Return booking the driver never leaves the airport, so the fee is only ever charged once.
