🚖 How many passengers fit per vehicle?

At Fly Transfer Mallorca we mainly work with standard taxi/private transfer vehicles.

👥 1 to 4 passengers → the standard case (most bookings).
🧳 If you’re 4 and also travelling heavy, describe luggage clearly so we can assign the right vehicle.

If you’re tight due to suitcases/strollers/bulky items, here are clear examples of what to write when booking:

✅ Why it’s important to enter the exact passenger count

There are 3 practical reasons:

🛡️ Safety and seatbelts: every passenger needs a seat.
🚗 Real vehicle capacity: it’s not just sitting — it’s travelling comfortably and safely.
🧩 Planning: assigning the right driver/vehicle and coordinating pickup.

That’s why:

✅ enter the real number in the booking
🚫 don’t book for 3 if you’ll be 4

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Travelling as a large group? (the right way to book)

If you’re more than 4, there are two options:

Option A (most common): multiple vehicles

🚕 You make additional bookings for extra taxis.
✅ Benefits:
- easier to arrange
- faster exit from the airport
- less risk of “no large vehicle available”

Examples:

👥 Group of 6 → 2 vehicles (3 + 3) or (4 + 2)
👥 Group of 8 → 2 vehicles (4 + 4)
👥 Group of 10–12 → 3 vehicles (4 + 4 + 4)

Tip: if the group arrives on the same flight, use the same flight number in each booking and add a note like “group booking, 2 vehicles”.

🚐 Do you need 5–7 seats? (minivan / larger vehicle)

It can be done, but:

🧩 Palma has few 5–7 seat vehicles.
📲 It depends on availability, so it’s best to ask us on WhatsApp first.

What to send so we can confirm quickly:

👥 Exact passenger count
🧳 Luggage (quantity + size)
✈️ Flight number (if it’s from PMI)
🕒 Date and time

Copy/paste message:

“Hi, we are __ pax and need 5–7 seats. Luggage: ____. Date/time: ____. Flight (if applicable): ____. Do you have availability?”

If you’re also travelling with kids, tell us ages and we’ll prepare it: baby/child seats (free)

🧳 Groups + luggage: the “detail” that changes everything

With groups, luggage matters even more than passenger count.

🧳 4 pax with light luggage → usually fine
🧳 4 pax maxed out + stroller + 2 seats → best to describe it very clearly
🏄 Oversized items (boards, bikes, rigid cases) → check first with dimensions

If you want to avoid hassle: describe luggage as it is (quantity + size). It’s not about charging more — it’s about real-world fit.

❓ FAQ (frequently asked questions)

Can 5 people fit in a standard taxi?

Usually not. The standard operation is 1–4 per vehicle. For 5–7, check availability.

What if I book for 3 and we are actually 4?

We can’t guarantee the service as booked: for safety and capacity, the passenger count must be exact.

Is it better to book 1 minivan or 2 taxis?

It depends on availability and luggage, but 2 taxis is often easier and quicker to arrange.

Can we all travel together as a large group?

If you’re more than 4, it’s typically multiple vehicles. We coordinate so you leave as close together as possible.

Does luggage affect this?

Yes — especially with 4 passengers. Tell us so we can assign the right vehicle.

✅ Final note: book correctly and avoid surprises

Simple rule:

👥 1–4 per vehicle
🚐 5–7 → check availability
🚕 large groups → multiple bookings
✅ exact passenger count (no “one extra”)
