The problem
Flight delays = driver wasting hours
Driver arrives at the terminal for a 9pm pickup. The flight lands at 11pm. That's two hours of unpaid waiting, fuel burned, and a missed second pickup that should have earned the driver another fare.
For Airport Transfer Fleets
Airport transfer software thattracks the flight, not just the car
Generic taxi software treats your airport pickups like any other ride. They're not. TaxiDex's airport mode tracks the actual flight, adjusts the pickup as the arrival shifts, and prepares your driver with a meet-and-greet sign — automatically.

Airport pain points
Why airport bookings need special handling
Airport jobs fail in four predictable ways on generic dispatch software. TaxiDex's airport mode answers each one directly.
TaxiDex
Live flight tracking
Type the flight number on the booking and TaxiDex pulls live IATA arrival data. The pickup time auto-shifts as the schedule moves, and the driver gets a push 30 minutes before the actual landing — not the originally scheduled landing.
The problem
Surge pricing on airport rides hurts trust
A passenger checks the app at home and sees $40. They land jet-lagged and the app now shows $58 with surge applied. They feel cheated, the receipt looks dishonest, and you lose the return booking.
TaxiDex
Fixed-price airport rates
Pre-set fixed prices per terminal. Surge-free, transparent, and identical from quote to receipt. Perfect for corporate travel desks and hotel partners who refuse to book variable-cost transport.
The problem
“Where's my driver?” panic at arrivals
The passenger lands and looks around the arrivals hall. The driver is still in short-stay parking. There's no line of communication, so the first impression of your brand is confusion and a phone call to the office.
TaxiDex
Meet-and-greet automation
An SMS reaches the passenger 10 minutes before landing: “Your driver is John (black Mercedes, ABC123) waiting at Terminal 2, Door 4, holding a sign with your name.” The driver app generates that branded digital sign on screen.
The problem
Luggage means longer rides
An airport ride takes roughly 35% longer on average because of luggage handling and airport queues. A generic fare engine doesn't know that, so drivers are under-compensated for the slowest jobs they run.
TaxiDex
Airport-aware fare engine
TaxiDex applies airport time multipliers and airport pickup surcharges automatically, computed on the backend and fully auditable. Drivers earn what the job is worth and passengers still see one fair number up front.
Capabilities
What you get for airport operations
Everything an airport fleet needs — flight tracking, pre-booking, meet-and-greet, and terminal-aware fares — built in, not bolted on.
Live flight tracking
IATA-fed real-time arrival data covering 4,300+ airports worldwide. The pickup window auto-adjusts the moment the flight's status changes, so dispatch and driver always work from the real landing time.
- Attach a flight number to any booking and TaxiDex monitors it end to end
- Pickup auto-shifts on delays, gate changes, and early arrivals
- Driver push fires 30 minutes before the actual landing
30-day pre-booking
Schedule airport pickups up to 30 days in advance with a full passenger confirmation flow. Recurring and bulk-imported bookings let you load an entire travel desk's month in one pass.
- Pre-book weeks ahead with automated confirmation reminders
- Recurring rides for regular corporate and crew travel
- Bulk import a spreadsheet of pickups from a partner
Digital meet-and-greet sign
The driver app generates a branded on-screen name board the moment they arrive, so passengers spot their ride instantly in a crowded arrivals hall — no printed paper, no guesswork.
- Passenger name rendered on a branded sign in your colors
- Driver, vehicle, color, and plate shared with the passenger by SMS
- Public track-my-ride link so passengers watch the car approach
Hotel concierge booker
Embed the TaxiDex web booker at hotel concierge desks and on partner intranets to capture outbound airport rides. It's a single HTML snippet — no app install for the guest or the front-desk team.
- Embeddable widget for concierge desks, airports, and corporate sites
- Hotel-partner accounts with B2B corporate billing and invoicing
- One snippet to deploy across every property you work with
Per-terminal fixed prices
Set a different fixed rate for each terminal, with optional variations by time of day. Drawn on a live map as zones with zone-to-zone pricing, the rates stay fixed from quote through to the final receipt.
- Distinct fixed fare per terminal, drawn as zones on a live map
- Optional time-of-day variations without resorting to surge
- Backend-computed and auditable — fixed fares stay fixed
Multi-language passenger comms
SMS and in-app messages reach international travelers in 22 languages, so the confirmation, the meet-and-greet message, and the ETA update all land in the passenger's own language.
- Confirmations, ETAs, and meet-and-greet notes in 22 languages
- Multi-currency and multi-region support across your markets
- Consistent voice from booking to drop-off, in any language
Live flight tracking
The pickup follows the plane
Add a flight number to any booking and TaxiDex monitors it against live IATA data for 4,300+ airports worldwide. As the status changes — a delay, an early arrival, a gate move — the scheduled pickup window shifts with it, so dispatch never has to babysit the board.
The assigned driver receives a push notification 30 minutes before the actual landing rather than the originally scheduled time, which keeps them off the rank until the plane is genuinely on approach. No more two-hour waits eating into a driver's shift, and no missed second fare.
New booking
Capture an airport job in seconds
Operators schedule airport pickups up to 30 days in advance with a full passenger confirmation flow. Recurring rides cover regular corporate and crew travel, and bulk import loads an entire travel desk's month from a single spreadsheet.
The embeddable web booker drops the same booking experience straight onto a hotel concierge desk, an airport kiosk, or a corporate intranet as one HTML snippet — so guests and front-desk teams reserve an outbound ride without installing anything.
Airport-aware fares
Fixed per-terminal pricing, surge-free
Draw each terminal as a zone on a live map and set a fixed zone-to-zone fare, with optional time-of-day variations. The number a passenger sees at booking is the number on the final receipt — no jet-lagged surge surprise, which is exactly what corporate travel desks and hotel partners demand.
Behind the scenes, the enterprise fare engine layers in airport time multipliers and pickup surcharges to compensate drivers for slower, luggage-heavy runs. Multipliers stack with caps, fixed fares stay fixed, and every fare is computed on the backend and fully auditable.
