What that looks like in practice, here you go.
How To Book Your Airport Taxi via WhatsApp
You do not need an app. You don’t have to create an account. You just send a message.
Here’s what to say in your opening WhatsApp message:
| What to Send | An Example |
|---|---|
| Your full name | Ahmed Khan |
| Pickup address | 14 Bolton Road, Bury, BL9 |
| Destination | Manchester Airport, Terminal 2 |
| Date and time | 12 April, 04:30 AM |
| Number of passengers | 3 passengers |
| Luggage | 3 large suitcases |
| Flight number | TK1987 |
Send all of it in one message and you will receive back a price confirmation and driver information very quickly. No back-and-forth needed.
Why Travellers Love to Book Their Taxi via WhatsApp
Phone calls are fine. But most people especially travelling abroad find WhatsApp easier. You can DM at two o’clock in the morning and not have to worry about anyone being upset for waking them up. You know there’s a record of the booking. Instantaneously, you can pass the confirmation off to another within your group.
RidexTaxis, which serves people living in Manchester, Bury, Salford, Rochdale and surrounding areas has taken hundreds of WhatsApp bookings. When talking with customers who booked on WhatsApp, we see this almost always comes up they want everything to be in writing before travel.
That makes sense. A written confirmation removes doubt. You know the price, who the driver is and when you’ll be picked up. There are no surprises.
What Happens After You Message
| Step | What Happens |
|---|---|
| 1 | RidexTaxis checks your journey and confirms availability |
| 2 | You receive a confirmed price, no surge, no estimate, no “depends on traffic” |
| 3 | Driver information is sent closer to your pickup time |
| 4 | On the day, you get a message when your driver is en route |
| 5 | For airport arrivals, the driver automatically tracks your flight |
During normal hours, the entire confirmation process takes less than 15 minutes. We also respond to late-night messages as we run 24/7 including Christmas and bank holidays.
Flight Tracking and Free Waiting Time
This is where many taxi companies fail. They provide a pickup time, and if your flight arrives early or late, you’re on your own.
RidexTaxis tracks your flight. If your Ryanair from Malaga is 40 minutes behind schedule, your driver knows before you’ve even taken off. There’s no charge for waiting, and you get 60 minutes of complimentary waiting time from the moment your flight lands. That’s plenty of time to clear passport control, collect your bags and reach the arrivals hall. If you ever need to know what happens when a flight is delayed with a pre-booked taxi, this page explains the full process.
Our drivers have a thorough knowledge of Manchester Airport Terminal 1, Terminal 2 and Terminal 3 pick up areas, short stay zones and which exits are quickest at different times of day.
