Before you travel

Good to know about Kirkwall (Orkney).

Where your driver meets you

Your driver waits in the arrivals hall at Kirkwall (Orkney) with a name board and helps with your luggage — no rank, no queue, no app to open.

A single terminal

Kirkwall (Orkney) works from one terminal — a single arrivals hall, one clear meeting point, and no walking between buildings with a trolley.

When to book

Summer holidays, Friday evenings and the first flights of the day are the busiest windows. Booking 24–72 hours ahead secures your preferred class; same-day is often possible — call to check.

Licensed, insured, vetted

Every driver is fully licensed private hire, insured and vetted, so the service reads the same wherever in the UK you land.

Payment & accounts

Pay by card online, cash to your driver, or on a corporate account with consolidated invoicing. The price you agree is complete — tipping is appreciated, never expected.

Tolls & charges included

Every road toll and airport pickup fee is built into the price we quote. What you agree is what you pay.

What a good Kirkwall (Orkney) transfer looks like

Kirkwall (Orkney) (KOI) sits 3 miles to kirkwall, with a typical drive of 10 minutes depending on traffic and your exact address. It is the kind of journey where the difference between a good transfer and a poor one is decided before you land: whether the driver watched the flight, whether the price moved, and whether anyone is actually standing in arrivals when you walk through.

Our answer is the same at every UK airport, Kirkwall (Orkney) included. The fare is fixed when you book, with tolls and pickup fees inside it. The flight is tracked from departure, so an early landing or a long delay simply moves the pickup — it never adds to the bill. And the driver waits inside the arrivals hall with a name board, takes the luggage, and walks you to the car.

Transfers from Kirkwall (Orkney) are quoted individually — the geography here deserves a real price rather than a formula, and we confirm the full amount before you commit. Every class from a saloon to a 8-seat van is available, and cancellation is free up to 24 hours before pickup.

Kirkwall (Orkney)
questions.

Anything else — call us any time on 020 8742 2888.

How do I find my driver when I land at Kirkwall (Orkney)?

In the arrivals hall at Kirkwall (Orkney) — a single terminal, so there's no guesswork — holding a name board just past baggage reclaim, ready to take the luggage.

How much is a chauffeur from Kirkwall (Orkney)?

We quote every Kirkwall (Orkney) transfer individually — call 020 8742 2888 or ask online, and the full price is confirmed before you travel.

Do you provide child seats?

Infant, child and booster seats are available on request (£8 each) — add them when you book with the child's age and the correct seat is fitted before pickup.

Is there just one terminal to find?

Kirkwall (Orkney) runs from a single terminal, which keeps things simple — one arrivals hall, one meeting point, confirmed with your booking.

How long is the drive to Kirkwall?

Reckon on 10 minutes to Kirkwall. Because we track the flight, the car sets off to match when you actually land.

What if I land late — do I lose the car?

We track your flight from take-off and move the pickup automatically, at no charge. Sixty minutes of complimentary wait means a slow bag or a long queue never costs you the car.

Do you come inside, or wait in the car park?

Always in person. The meet-and-greet — into the hall, name board up, luggage taken — is part of the price, not a paid add-on.

“Always had great conversations with the drivers during the multiple trips I had with P5. I strongly recommend.”
