Chennai · MAA transfers

Chennai Airport Taxi for Corporate Travel

MAA is 22 km from mid-OMR through the busiest interchange in South India. Getting a guest picked up on time is a staging problem, not a booking problem — here is how we run it, and what it costs.

How a MAA pickup actually runs

  • Flight tracked; chauffeur pre-staged at Perungalathur or Tambaram 45 minutes before scheduled landing.
  • Chauffeur name, photo and plate number shared with the traveller before they land.
  • Greet at the arrivals gate for C-suite and visiting-leadership bookings, kerbside for standard transfers.
  • Kathipara avoided after 17:00 — southbound runs use the GST Road service lane.
  • Monsoon flag (Oct–Dec) triggers an automatic GST-Road interior reroute instead of a flooded OMR.
  • Trip closes into the next Guindy or Velachery booking, so no garage-return kilometres reach your invoice.

Common questions

How much is a corporate airport taxi in Chennai?+

Indicative one-way MAA transfer bands for contracted corporate accounts: sedan ₹1,150–1,450 to the CBD and ₹1,350–1,700 to OMR / Siruseri; Innova Crysta ₹2,200–2,700 and ₹2,600–3,200; luxury ₹8,500–14,000. Tolls and airport parking are pass-through at actuals and GST 5% applies on the standard package.

How far is Chennai airport from OMR and the IT corridor?+

MAA is roughly 22 km from mid-OMR via the Kathipara interchange — the busiest interchange in South India. Siruseri is about 28 km out. Because Kathipara stacks badly after 17:00, our chauffeurs pre-stage at Perungalathur or Tambaram rather than driving in from the garage on the booking.

How do you make sure the car is there when the flight lands?+

Every MAA pickup is pre-staged 45 minutes before scheduled landing with the chauffeur name and plate number logged and shared with the traveller. Flights are tracked, so a delayed landing shifts the staging window automatically instead of burning waiting charges.

What happens during the north-east monsoon?+

From October to December, Velachery, Pallikaranai and Madipakkam waterlog and static MAA SLAs break. An active waterlogging flag triggers an automatic re-quote on affected MAA legs and reroutes traffic to the GST Road interior line — no manual call needed from your travel desk.

Can airport transfers be billed to the company rather than the traveller?+

Yes. Every transfer is raised to your GSTIN on a single consolidated monthly invoice per legal entity, with cost-centre tagging — which removes the reimbursement paperwork and the lost-credit problem that comes with employees booking aggregator cabs personally.

Do you cover late-night arrivals?+

Yes, 24×7 from our Perungudi (OMR) control tower. Late-night rides carry one-tap in-app SOS, live trip-share to a nominated contact, verified chauffeur ID on the traveller's phone and geofenced route-deviation alerts.
