QuickPickupsTransfer extras and special luggage in Barcelona
Skis, bikes, golf clubs, an extra suitcase, child seats. Here is how each one is handled and how much of it fits in each vehicle, so nothing appears on the day of the transfer.
- Tell us when booking; any supplement is confirmed before the trip
- 60 minutes of free waiting at the airport
- Tell us at booking and the vehicle is assigned accordingly
Can I take skis on a Barcelona transfer?
Skis and boards travel as special equipment, with a limit per vehicle — one set in a saloon, two or three in a minivan, four or more in a van. Tell us how many sets you are carrying when you book: if they do not fit, we quote the larger vehicle before you pay, never after.
The same logic applies to every bulky item. A bike in its box, a golf bag, a suitcase you did not declare: each one has a physical limit, listed on this page. Tell us when booking; any supplement is confirmed before the trip.
Extras
Per unit and per journey. Tell us when booking; any supplement is confirmed before the trip.
| Extra | What it covers | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Ski or snowboard set | One set per passenger: skis or board, poles and boot bag. | Tell us when booking |
| Bike in a box or bag | The bike must travel packed in a box or a proper bike bag. | Tell us when booking |
| Golf bag | One bag of clubs, travel cover included. | Tell us when booking |
| Extra suitcase | Each suitcase beyond the number you declared when booking. | Tell us when booking |
| Extra 30 minutes of waiting | Only after the free waiting time (60 min at the airport, 30 at the port and Sants, 15 elsewhere). | Tell us when booking |
| Folding wheelchair | Includes the driver's help loading and unloading it, and a vehicle assigned with room for it. | Tell us when booking |
| Folding pushchair | No charge. Tell us at booking so we leave room in the boot. | No charge |
| Folding walking frame | No charge. Tell us at booking. | No charge |
Need an adapted, wheelchair-accessible vehicle rather than a folding chair in the boot? Tell us when you book and we assign one subject to availability.
How much special luggage fits in each vehicle
This is the table that avoids the argument. Special luggage takes space that passenger seats do not free up, so the limit is physical, not commercial. Tell us how many sets you are carrying when you book.
| Vehicle | Ski sets | Bikes | Golf bags | Folding wheelchairs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Saloon (Prius+ and similar) | 1 set | 0 | 1 bag | 1 folding |
| Minivan (e.g. Mercedes V-Class) | 2–3 sets | 1 | 2 bags | 1–2 folding |
| Van / minibus | 4 or more | 2–3 | 3 or more | 2 or more |
Eight passengers with eight ski sets do not fit in one vehicle. When that happens we quote two vehicles or a minibus before you pay.
Seats and standard suitcases per vehicle are a different table and come straight from our fleet: see the fleet catalogue.
Child seats
Three types, by weight and age. Ask for the one you need when you book and the driver arrives with it already fitted.
Infant carrier (0–13 kg, up to ~15 months)
€6.81
Rear-facing baby seat, fitted by the driver before you get in.
Convertible seat (9–18 kg, ~9 months–4 years)
€4.86
Harness seat for toddlers, fitted before pickup.
Booster seat (15–36 kg, ~4–12 years)
€3.89
Required by Spanish law below 135 cm.
A child seat is equipment, not a passenger. It does not use up one of the seats you booked, so a family of four with two child seats still books a car for four.
Waiting time: what is free and what is charged
Free waiting is included in every transfer and starts at the scheduled pickup time:
60 minutes free
Barcelona-El Prat Airport
30 minutes free
Cruise port and Sants station
15 minutes free
Hotels, homes and every other address
Waiting beyond that free window may be charged. On airport pickups we track the flight, so a delayed landing moves the pickup instead of eating your free waiting time.
Frequently asked questions
- Can I take skis or a snowboard?
- Yes. A set means skis or a board plus poles and a boot bag. Tell us when booking; any supplement is confirmed before the trip.
- How many ski sets fit in one vehicle?
- One set in a saloon, two or three in a minivan, four or more in a van. Special luggage takes boot space, so the limit is physical and does not change by removing passengers.
- We are eight people with eight ski sets. What happens?
- Eight sets do not fit in one vehicle. Tell us the number of sets when you book and we quote two vehicles or a minibus before you pay, never after.
- Do you charge for a pushchair?
- No. A folding pushchair travels at no charge, and so does a folding walking frame. Tell us at booking so we leave room in the boot.
- How much free waiting time do I get?
- Free waiting is 60 minutes at Barcelona-El Prat Airport, 30 minutes at the cruise port and Sants station, and 15 minutes at any other address. Waiting beyond that may be charged.
- Can I bring my bike?
- Yes, packed in a box or a bike bag. Tell us when booking. A saloon cannot take one, a minivan takes one and a van takes two or three.
- What if I arrive with more suitcases than I declared?
- Tell us as soon as you know: an extra suitcase can travel as long as it fits in the vehicle you booked. If it does not fit we have to send a larger vehicle, which is why it is cheaper to declare the real number when you book.
- Does a child seat use up one of the seats I booked?
- No. A child seat is equipment, not a passenger: it does not count towards the number of passengers. A family of four travelling with two child seats still books a vehicle for four.
