Why is the Glasgow Airport fare "from £40" rather than one fixed price?

£40 is the starting one-way price for a standard car on the Cardross / Helensburgh run. The final fare depends on your exact pickup address, passenger and luggage numbers (an 8-seater costs more than a saloon), the time of day and any waiting or extra stops. You always see one fixed total before you confirm — it never changes afterwards.

How do Glasgow Airport charges apply on top of the fare?

Glasgow Airport drop-off / pick-up charges are added on top of the quoted fare. Glasgow Airport bills operators for using the drop-off and pick-up zones, so that charge is passed on at cost and shown as a separate line on your quote and receipt rather than being hidden inside the fare. Meet-and-greet inside the terminal is an optional extra.

What does the 7am – 10pm standard-rate window mean?

Pickups starting between 7am and 10pm are quoted at the standard rate, so the from £40 from-price applies. Journeys that start in the 10pm – 7am night window can be priced higher, in line with the Argyll and Bute Council tariff for unsocial hours. The window is judged on your pickup time, not your flight time.

When is my exact fare confirmed?

At the time of booking. Once we have your pickup address, vehicle size and pickup time we confirm one fixed total, including airport charges and any night-rate uplift, before you pay or the job is accepted. Prices may vary during night-time hours (typically 10pm–7am).
