Comparing Canatransfers with other options

Where is My CanaTransfers Driver?

Terminal A Meeting Point: Once you exit the glass doors into the fresh air, look for the “Pre-booked/Tour Operator” area. Your driver will be standing in the designated waiting zone holding a CanaTransfers digital tablet or a professional sign with your name.

Terminal B Meeting Point: Terminal B is more organized but can be busier. Exit the customs area and follow the signs to Transport/Taxi. Look for our uniformed driver near the Cafeteria/Meeting area. We stay away from the chaotic taxi lines to ensure a calm greeting.

The CanaTransfers “contact protocol”:

To ensure you never feel “stranded,” we follow a strict communication plan:

Before takeoff: You’ll receive a WhatsApp message from your personal concierge.

Upon landing: Once you turn on your phone, you’ll have a message with your driver’s name and live location.
