        Seat count does not describe the remaining luggage space. Send the passengers and large-bag dimensions together. A load that fits with four travellers may not fit when the last row is occupied.

        A photo of the complete luggage helps

        Photograph the suitcases, boxes, pushchair and golf bags together, with the largest dimensions. Identify items that cannot fold or stack. Compare a larger vehicle with separate luggage transport, and confirm the actual vehicle's capacity instead of relying on a universal suitcase count.

        Choosing a vehicle by bag count

        4-seat sedan: about 3 suitcases

        Suits one to three travellers with a regular suitcase each plus hand luggage.

        7-seater: about 4 suitcases

        A good fit for a small family. With all three rows in use, the boot only takes small bags, so please keep that in mind if six of you are travelling.

        16-seater or 9-11 seat limousine: about 6-8 suitcases

        Ideal for five to eight people with large cases, or families bringing home boxes of gifts.

        19-seat limousine or 29-seat coach: about 18-22 suitcases; 45-seat coach: about 38-40

        For tour groups, delegations and company travel.

        Estimating your luggage

        Count pieces, not people

        Please list checked bags, cabin bags and any special items such as golf bags, cartons or a stroller. A large suitcase that has to ride inside the cabin takes roughly the space of a seat.

        Mention oversized items in advance

        Surfboards, bike boxes and instruments need their dimensions noted at booking so we can send a car with a long enough load space.

        Torn between two sizes?

        We would suggest going one size up, or for larger groups, one car for passengers and a second for luggage.

        At the airport

        Meeting your driver

        Your driver tracks the flight and waits if it runs late. Once you have all your bags, please call your driver, who will guide you to the pickup point; at Tan Son Nhat Terminal 3, chauffeur cars use their own meeting point.

        A quick count before leaving

        Please count your pieces as they go into the car, especially when a group has several similar cases. Our driver will gladly help with loading.

        Start an airport vehicle choice with the largest item

        Declare strollers, golf bags, gifts and unusual equipment in addition to cases. Identify items that cannot tilt when passing through a boot opening. External measurements or a loading photo help select the car. Allow time to count bags and keep valuables accessible without obstructing passengers or exits.

        How to send your luggage list

        List each large case with its outside size including wheels, plus strollers, golf bags or boxes. A photo of all bags together helps.

        If bags would block a seat or the rear window, book a larger vehicle or a second car.

        Quick answers

        Can bags go on seats? Only if belted and not blocking views.

        Is a roof box available? Ask at booking.
