Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book a ride?
We recommend booking your transfer or hourly hire service at least 72 hours in advance. If you don’t have that much time, you can request an urgent transfer — we’ll let you know as soon as possible whether we can confirm it.
What pick-up time should I specify for the transfer?
If your transfer starts from an airport or railway station, please specify your flight or train arrival time as the start of your transfer. This helps the driver organize the meeting more accurately.
If your transfer starts from a hotel to an airport, please indicate the time you wish to be picked up at reception. You’ll need to calculate it yourself, allowing extra time for check-in. We recommend adding about 3 hours before your flight’s departure. For example, if your flight leaves at 14:00 and the trip takes 1 hour, your pick-up time should be 10:00.
How do I know if my order has been accepted?
After submitting your booking, you’ll receive an email with all trip details and your order status as “Waiting”. Once we receive and confirm your payment, the status will change to “Accepted”, and you’ll receive another email confirmation.
If you don’t receive the confirmation email, please contact our support team at office@welcome.taxi.
How do I change my booking?
To make changes to your booking, please contact our support team at office@welcome.taxi.
Important note: Requests for changes made less than 72 hours before your trip may be declined.
How can I cancel my booking?
You can cancel your booking in two ways:
- Via the booking page on our website — use the cancellation number provided in your booking voucher, at least 72 hours before the trip.
- By contacting our support team if it’s less than 72 hours before your ride.
Important note: In case of urgent cancellation, we may not be able to refund your deposit. The free cancellation period is stated in your confirmation email.
What should I do if my flight is delayed?
If your flight is delayed by less than 30 minutes, the driver will adjust their arrival time automatically.
If the delay is longer, please inform the driver directly (their phone number is in your confirmation voucher) or contact WelcomeTaxi Customer Support at office@welcome.taxi. Please include your order number and the new arrival time.
Important note: The driver may charge an additional fee for extended waiting time.
How will I find my driver?
For airport transfers, if you’ve added the meet-and-greet option to your order, the driver will meet you in the arrivals area — right after passport control and baggage claim. You’ll see a name sign with your first and last names (or custom text, if specified in your booking).
Important note: We strongly recommend adding the meet-and-greet option to your airport transfer booking.
For hotel pickups, the driver will wait for you in the hotel lobby. Detailed meeting instructions and your driver’s contact number are provided in your booking confirmation voucher.
How can I be sure that my driver will pick me up?
WelcomeTaxi guarantees that your driver will do their best to meet you on time.
Both you and the driver will have each other’s phone or WhatsApp number. Please keep your mobile phone switched on at the time of pickup. If you can’t reach the driver, contact our support team immediately.
I can’t find my driver. What should I do?
If you can’t find your driver, please double-check the name signs again — the driver may have missed you in the crowd.
Try calling or messaging the driver via WhatsApp. If there’s no response within the meeting time, contact our support team.
If necessary, go to the airport’s Information Desk to arrange a local taxi to your destination.
Important note: If the driver fails to meet you, we will refund your payment.

Private Airport Transfers from Stockholm Västerås Airport
Stockholm Västerås Airport (VST) is a regional airport located near the city of Västerås, west of Stockholm. Although it is often grouped with Stockholm-area airports, travelers should note that VST is not located in the capital itself. Its position makes it useful for passengers traveling to Västerås, Stockholm, Uppsala, Eskilstuna, Örebro and other destinations in the Mälardalen region.
WelcomeTaxi provides pre-booked private transfers from Stockholm Västerås Airport to Stockholm, Västerås city center, hotels, private addresses, business locations, cruise terminals and long-distance destinations across Sweden. For travelers who prefer a direct and comfortable arrival, a private airport transfer is often the most practical alternative to public transport or arranging a taxi after landing.
Because VST is outside Stockholm, ground transport planning is especially important. A trip to central Stockholm is much longer than a typical city airport transfer, and regional routes may require careful timing. Booking in advance gives you a confirmed vehicle, a planned route and a professional English-speaking driver who understands the journey details before you arrive.
Transportation Options from Västerås Airport
Passengers arriving at Stockholm Västerås Airport can use different transport options depending on schedule, destination and travel style. Local taxis may be available for journeys into Västerås and nearby areas. Public transport can also be possible via Västerås city, where passengers may connect with regional trains or buses toward Stockholm, Örebro, Eskilstuna and other Swedish destinations.
For travelers with light luggage and flexible timing, public transport can be a reasonable option. However, it may involve several steps: getting from the airport to Västerås, continuing by train or bus, and then arranging local transport at the final destination. This can be inconvenient after a flight, especially for visitors unfamiliar with the region.
A pre-booked private transfer provides a simpler door-to-door solution. Your driver meets you according to the confirmed pickup details and takes you directly to your destination without the need to change vehicles, carry luggage through stations or adjust your plans to public transport timetables.
Private Transfers from VST to Stockholm
Many travelers use Stockholm Västerås Airport as an alternative gateway to the Stockholm region. WelcomeTaxi can arrange private transfers from VST to central Stockholm, including Norrmalm, Östermalm, Södermalm, Vasastan, Gamla Stan, Solna, Kista, Bromma, Nacka and other districts of the capital.
Transfers from VST to Stockholm are suitable for tourists, business travelers, families and groups. Instead of reaching a station first and then continuing by train or bus, passengers can travel directly from the airport terminal to their hotel, apartment, office or event venue. This is especially useful for late arrivals, early departures, passengers with children or travelers with several suitcases.
For groups, a pre-booked van or minibus can be more comfortable than separate taxis or public transport tickets. It also helps make sure there is enough luggage space, which is particularly important for longer trips, winter travel, sports equipment or cruise passengers.
Transfers to Västerås and the Mälardalen Region
For passengers whose destination is Västerås itself, VST is a convenient local airport. Private transfers can be arranged to Västerås city center, hotels, private homes, university buildings, business parks, industrial sites, event venues and lakeside locations around Lake Mälaren.
The wider Mälardalen region includes many important towns and travel corridors. WelcomeTaxi can arrange long-distance transfers from Stockholm Västerås Airport to Eskilstuna, Enköping, Örebro, Uppsala, Strängnäs, Södertälje, Nyköping, Gävle, Norrköping, Linköping and other destinations by request.
For regional travel, a private transfer is often easier than combining local taxi, train and bus services. This is particularly true when traveling to a countryside hotel, company site, private address or conference venue outside a city center. Door-to-door transport saves time and reduces the risk of missed connections.
Chauffeur Service from Västerås Airport
WelcomeTaxi also offers chauffeur service from Stockholm Västerås Airport and within the surrounding region. This service is useful for business trips, corporate roadshows, site visits, events, VIP travel, weddings, private tours and hourly bookings.
An hourly chauffeur service may be the best option when your itinerary includes several stops or uncertain timing. A driver can meet you at VST, take you to Västerås or Stockholm, wait during meetings and continue to another address later in the day. This is more convenient than ordering separate taxis for each leg of the trip.
English-speaking drivers make the journey easier for international visitors, especially when pickup instructions, business addresses or regional destinations may be unfamiliar. For corporate guests, a pre-arranged chauffeur service also gives the arrival a more professional and reliable structure.
Inter-Airport Transfers in the Stockholm Region
Stockholm-area airports are spread across a wide region, and travelers sometimes need to move between them. WelcomeTaxi can arrange private transfers from Stockholm Västerås Airport (VST) to Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN), Bromma Stockholm Airport (BMA) or Stockholm Skavsta Airport (NYO).
Inter-airport transfers are useful when flights arrive at one airport and depart from another, or when passengers combine regional and international flights. Because these airports are not close to each other, it is important to plan enough time for baggage collection, road travel, traffic and check-in.
A pre-booked airport-to-airport transfer gives better control over timing than trying to combine local buses, regional trains and taxis. It is especially useful for passengers traveling with luggage, families, groups or anyone unfamiliar with Swedish transport connections.
Why Pre-Book Instead of Taking a Regular Taxi?
At a regional airport such as Västerås, pre-booking is particularly valuable. The destination may be far from the airport, and a standard local taxi may not always be the most suitable choice for a longer trip to Stockholm or another city. With a private transfer, the route, vehicle and passenger requirements are confirmed before arrival.
Pre-booking also helps avoid uncertainty about luggage capacity and vehicle size. If you are traveling with several suitcases, sports equipment, children’s items or a larger group, it is better to arrange the correct vehicle in advance. WelcomeTaxi can provide options for individual travelers, families, business guests and groups.
Another advantage is convenience. After landing, you do not need to check train times, find the right bus connection or arrange a second taxi at the destination. Your journey continues directly from the airport to your hotel, office, home, cruise terminal or regional address.
Useful Travel Information for VST Arrivals
Although the airport uses the Stockholm Västerås name, it is important to understand its regional location. VST is best viewed as an airport for Västerås and the wider Mälardalen area, with Stockholm reachable by road but not immediately nearby. For this reason, a pre-booked transfer is often the most comfortable choice for passengers whose final destination is Stockholm or another city.
Travel time from VST depends on the exact destination, traffic, weather and time of day. Swedish winter conditions may affect road journeys, while summer events, conferences and holiday travel can increase demand for private vehicles. Booking in advance is the best way to make sure the right vehicle is available for your arrival time.
Whether you are traveling to Västerås, Stockholm, another airport or a long-distance destination in Sweden, WelcomeTaxi can arrange a private transfer from Stockholm Västerås Airport with a professional English-speaking driver and a suitable vehicle for your route.
