Can I book a car in Amsterdam for someone else and follow their ride?
Yes; it is one of the most common bookings. Choose to book for someone else, enter the traveler's name and contact details and your own as booker: the traveler gets the chauffeur's details and their own My Ride link, and you get the status updates: confirmed, chauffeur en route, passenger in the car, arrived. At Schiphol the sign carries their name or your company's, and the chauffeur waits inside the arrivals hall. You pay; they just walk out to the car. A Schiphol to Amsterdam pickup is €90 in Business Class, and if they would be more comfortable with a woman at the wheel, say so in the notes; dispatch confirms on WhatsApp before the booking is final.

Schiphol to any Amsterdam address is a fixed price per car, with meet and greet inside the arrivals hall and the first 60 minutes of waiting free. Prices are per car, not per person, with 9% Dutch VAT included, and the same day and night. During ADE week (pickups October 20 to 26, 2026) fixed ADE-week prices apply, shown before you book; promo codes cannot be used that week. Booked less than 12 hours before pickup: +10%. At an airport or an intercity station the first 60 minutes of waiting are free, elsewhere 15 minutes; after that waiting is charged per minute at the class's hourly rate (Business €65 an hour). Free cancellation up to 1 hour before pickup.
What is included in the price
- Flight tracking from the moment you book: an early or late landing moves the pickup, at no extra cost
- Your chauffeur inside the arrivals hall your flight feeds into, holding an iPad sign with your name (or a company name, or no name)
- A message or call from the chauffeur around landing, so you find each other quickly
- Luggage carried from the hall to the car, which waits in the Privium section at the front of P1, a covered walk of about two minutes
- The first 60 minutes of waiting at Schiphol
- Water and phone chargers (iOS and Android) in the car; English-speaking chauffeur and 24/7 dispatch
Who books for whom
| Booking for | Worth adding in the notes |
|---|---|
| Parents or grandparents | Airline assistance booked, a wheelchair or rollator, how many bags |
| A daughter or son arriving alone | A woman chauffeur request; their phone number for WhatsApp |
| A client or speaker | Company name on the sign, an invoice to the company |
| An exchange student | The housing address and its key pickup rules |

What the traveler sees
An e-mail with the chauffeur's name, the car and a phone number before pickup, their own My Ride link, and a person holding their name inside the hall. Nothing to pay and nothing to explain at the curb.
A female chauffeur, on request
Ask for a female chauffeur in the booking notes or on WhatsApp. Dispatch checks which chauffeur partners are free at your date and time and confirms on WhatsApp before you pay. Your booking is final only after that confirmation.
| Price | The same fixed fare as any booking, for example €90 in Business Class from Schiphol to any Amsterdam address |
|---|---|
| Notice | The earlier the better; a few days ahead gives dispatch the widest choice |
| Classes | Business, Van and First Class |
| Before pickup | The chauffeur’s name, car and phone number, as for every ride |
