Inside Our Fleet: What's Waiting for You at the Airport

Most airport transfer companies in Jamaica do not own their vehicles. They broker. They subcontract. They match you with whoever is available, and you find out what you are riding in when you walk outside.

Aurum Transfers is different. Every vehicle in our fleet is 100% owned by Aurum Transfers Limited. Every driver works for us directly -- not through an app, not through a third party, not through a tourism desk referral. This matters because ownership means accountability. If something is wrong with the vehicle, we fix it. If the air conditioning is not cold enough, we know about it before you do. If the WiFi drops, we troubleshoot our own equipment.

Here is what is waiting for you when your driver meets you inside the terminal.

Reggae Ride Wagon

Type: Sedan Capacity: 1-3 guests Best for: Solo travellers, couples, and small groups travelling light

The Reggae Ride Wagon is our sedan option -- comfortable, efficient, and ideal for short to mid-range transfers. It works perfectly for the 15-minute ride from MBJ to Rose Hall or the quick hop from OCJ to Tower Isle.

Air-conditioned, professionally cleaned before every trip, and equipped with Starlink satellite WiFi like every vehicle in the fleet. If you are travelling as a couple with standard luggage, this is the right choice.

Ochi Luxe Van

Type: Van Capacity: Up to 4 guests Best for: Families, friend groups, and anyone with extra luggage

The Ochi Luxe Van is the core of our fleet and the vehicle most guests ride in. It handles families with children (including free child seats on request), couples with dive gear or golf bags, and groups of friends who want space to stretch out.

For longer journeys -- the two-hour drive from MBJ to Ocho Rios, the three-hour route to Negril, or the scenic road from KIN to Port Antonio -- the extra room matters. Luggage goes in the back, not on your lap, and everyone has a window.

Irie Island SUV

Type: SUV Capacity: Up to 4 guests Best for: Guests who prefer a higher ride, rougher terrain routes, and premium comfort

The Irie Island SUV sits higher, handles Jamaica's varied road conditions with ease, and delivers a slightly more premium feel. Choose this for routes that include hillier terrain -- the climb to Strawberry Hill above Kingston, the winding road into Portland, or the coastal route to Treasure Beach where the road narrows through fishing villages.

Same Starlink WiFi. Same cold water. Same professional driver. Just a different driving experience.

Jammin' Shuttle

Type: Shuttle Capacity: Up to 10 guests Best for: Extended families, wedding parties, and mid-size group arrivals

When your group is five to ten people, the Jammin' Shuttle keeps everyone together in one vehicle. No splitting across multiple cars. No coordinating two drivers. No arriving at the resort in shifts.

This vehicle works especially well for wedding groups flying into MBJ together, multi-generational families sharing a villa in Rose Hall or Runaway Bay, and corporate retreat teams heading to Round Hill or Half Moon.

Yaadman Executive Coach

Type: Coach Capacity: Up to 20 guests Best for: Large group transfers, corporate events, and incentive travel

The Yaadman Executive Coach is our largest vehicle -- built for groups that need to move together. Up to 20 guests with luggage, climate control, and Starlink WiFi throughout.

Common uses include conference groups arriving at MBJ for events in Montego Bay, incentive travel groups heading to all-inclusive resorts, and sports teams or school trips.

What Every Vehicle Shares

No matter which vehicle you ride in, the experience includes:

Starlink satellite WiFi -- the only airport transfer in Jamaica to offer satellite internet in every vehicle, which works even where cellular coverage drops
Professional, JTB-certified driver -- background-checked, employed directly by Aurum Transfers, and trained in guest service
Air conditioning -- maintained and tested before every trip
Cold water -- because after a long flight, hydration is not optional
Full insurance -- every vehicle carries comprehensive commercial insurance
Transport Authority and JTB licensing -- every vehicle meets Jamaica's regulatory requirements
Professional cleaning -- interior cleaned and sanitised between every trip

We Own It All. That Is the Point.

When a company owns its fleet, quality control is not a suggestion -- it is a daily practice. We inspect vehicles. We maintain them on schedule. We know the service history of every engine, every tyre, every air conditioning unit. When you book an Aurum transfer, you are not trusting a random contractor's car. You are trusting ours.

This also means consistency. The vehicle that picks you up at MBJ for your arrival is maintained to the same standard as the one that takes you back to the airport for departure. The Starlink equipment is the same across the fleet. The cold water is always there. The driver always works for us.

How Vehicles Are Assigned

When you book, you select a standard transfer service and your vehicle is assigned based on your group size and luggage requirements. If you have a specific preference -- SUV over van, for instance -- note it in the special requests field at booking, and we will accommodate it when fleet availability allows.

For groups larger than four, you will see the Jammin' Shuttle and Yaadman Executive Coach as separate booking options.
