Airbnb has partnered with Welcome Pickups to offer private car transfers as part of its Services offering.
The service is available in more than 125 cities across Asia, Europe and Latin America and enables guests to pre-book a car in the Airbnb app between their listing and point of arrival or departure. The introduction follows a trial earlier this year.
“Airbnb Services are designed to enhance a guest’s stay, and our partnership with Welcome Pickups delivers that from the moment they arrive,” said Dave Stephenson, chief business officer of Airbnb. “Now guests can book a private car service in advance, taking the hassle out of organizing transportation in a new city.”
Airbnb unveiled Services in May 2025 with 10 categories including private chefs, personal training and spa treatments. Stephenson added that the car service is just the start of expanding the offering.
Guests will see the option to book a car in the app once they've reserved their accommodation.
“Arriving in a new destination should feel exciting, not stressful,” said Alex Trimis, CEO of Welcome Pickups. “For years, Welcome Pickups has helped travelers plan that moment in advance, with reliable transfers and a personal welcome waiting when they arrive. We’re thrilled to partner with Airbnb to bring that experience directly into the travel journey and help even more guests start their trip with confidence.”
