02 · What it is

Fixed-price airport taxi to STR.

Standard — Mercedes E-Class or equivalent (illustrative image)

Festpreis (fixed price) is the alternative to the standard taxi tariff (Taxameter) — instead of starting a meter and accumulating cents per minute and metre, we agree a single price up-front. You see it for your exact address and Stuttgart Airport (or vice versa) before you book, and it is locked the moment you confirm.

For airport transfers the value is predictability: the taximeter keeps running every minute spent in B27 traffic and only settles at the destination — so its total swings with the day. The fixed price removes that variance. You see one number when you book, and you pay exactly that number — no surge, no surprises, whatever the traffic.

We don't play games with surge pricing — every customer who books the same route at the same time sees the same price, regardless of how busy our dispatch is. Traffic, detours, night hours or the airport itself do not change it.

  • Quote locked at booking — never adjusted post-confirm
  • No airport-surcharge, no night-tariff (the Stuttgart tariff has neither)
  • Within the City of Stuttgart's taxi tariff rules, without running the meter
  • Mercedes E-Class, V-Class, or S-Class — your pick
  • Booking confirmation by email in under 60 seconds
  • Paid securely at booking via Stripe — full refund if you cancel > 24 h

03 · When this is the right pick

When fixed-price is the right pick.

Airport-bound from anywhere outside Stuttgart-Mitte

On 10 km+ airport runs the meter is at its most unpredictable — per-minute traffic and waiting charges stack up and the total is only known at the destination. Locking a fixed price from Tübingen, Reutlingen, Esslingen, Sindelfingen, or anywhere in the region means the price is settled before you ride, not after.

Pre-planned travel — flights booked weeks ahead

You know exactly when you're flying. Book the transfer at the same time you book the flight. Free cancellation up to 24 h means there's no risk if plans change.

Travel-budget-conscious bookers

When the trip cost shows up on an expense report, "exact price agreed up-front" is much easier to defend than "depends on the meter, expect €60–€90."

04 · What it costs

From €45.90 — the short Filder runs.

Standard class (Mercedes E-Class, up to 4 passengers, 3 suitcases) starts at €45.90 — that is our fixed minimum, and it is what the short runs off the Filder plateau cost: Leinfelden-Echterdingen, Plieningen, Möhringen, Degerloch, Vaihingen. Stuttgart-Mitte is €64.90. Longer distances have their fixed price too — Reutlingen €149.90, Tübingen €175.90.

05 · Frequently asked

What people ask before booking.

  • How is the fixed price calculated?

    Every Stuttgart-region origin and destination has its price before you book — for your exact addresses and the vehicle class. The quote you see in the widget is the price you pay; we don't adjust for traffic, route detours, or driver discretion, and it is fixed the moment you confirm.

  • What is included in the fixed price?

    Door-to-door transfer, all luggage handling, child seats (free, up to three, selected in the booking form), bottled water on Premium class, payment processing (Stripe, charged at booking), VAT, and the booking confirmation by email. The price does not include tip — German taxi-tipping convention is voluntary, 5–10 % is standard for good service but never expected.

  • Fixed price or taximeter — what is the real difference?

    A taximeter is variable: it keeps counting per minute in traffic and only settles once you arrive — so the final figure is known only at the destination. Our fixed price is the opposite: one number, locked when you book, unaffected by traffic, time of day, or detours. On airport runs of 10 km+ — where meter variance is highest — that certainty is the point: you see the exact amount up-front and that is what you pay, whatever the A8 does that morning.

  • Are there hidden surcharges I should know about?

    No. Specifically: no airport-surcharge, no night-tariff (the Stuttgart tariff ordinance has neither — day and night cost the same on the meter), 15 minutes of waiting included, no card-payment surcharge. The only line on your invoice is the trip itself. If something changes mid-trip (route detour, additional stop, extended waiting), we update the booking and quote the change before charging anything beyond the original amount.

  • How does the payment and refund work?

    When you book, we charge the fixed trip amount via Stripe — secured with 3-D Secure and PCI DSS Level 1. If you cancel free (more than 24 h before pickup), Stripe issues a full refund within 1–10 banking days depending on your bank or payment provider. Between 6–24 h before pickup: 50 % refund. Under 6 h or no-show: no refund. We never store your card number; only Stripe sees the full PAN.

  • What if my flight is delayed and I arrive late at STR?

    You should still book the pickup time as +45 min after your scheduled landing — that's the buffer that covers most delays plus customs. If you're later than that, tell dispatch: 15 minutes of waiting after the booked pickup time are included, and a reported delay moves the pickup at the same fixed price; waiting beyond that without notice is billed at €38 per hour. We don't auto-track flight delays via flight-data APIs — too many false positives — but we adjust same-day for any delay that's communicated to dispatch.

  • Can my dog travel with me?

    Yes. Dogs travel in a carrier or on a blanket at no extra fee — tell us at booking so the driver can prepare the car. Heavily soiled or wet animals are subject to the cleaning-fee schedule in our T&Cs.
