Why pre-book your Labuan Bajo airport taxi?

When several flights from Bali and Jakarta land at once, arrivals can get busy. Pre-booking means your driver already knows your name, group size and luggage, so you can head straight to your hotel or to the harbour for your boat trip.

Send your flight number and landing time when you book. For phinisi boat pick-ups, include the boat name and meeting point.

Choose the right car
