Every vehicle is licensed for booked hire, every booking carries commercial passenger insurance, and you get your driver’s name and number by 5pm the day before. - Owner-operated: Chris, owner-driver, coordinates every job and a team of local professional drivers. - CGC holds Queensland Booking Entity Authorisation (BEA) 232082, and each vehicle holds its own booked hire service licence. - On the day: your flight is tracked, you get a message when your driver is on the way, and at Gold Coast Airport they meet you inside arrivals with your name on a sign.

CGC is owner-operated: Chris, owner-driver, coordinates every job and a team of local professional drivers. Here is what every one of them holds before they collect you, and what you can expect on the day. - ✔ Queensland driver authorisation: criminal history, driving history and medical checks - ✔ CGC onboarding course, signed declaration and certificate - ✔ Vehicles licensed and insured for booked hire - ✔ Driver’s name and number by 5pm the day before - ✔ Meet and greet inside Gold Coast Airport arrivals ## Checks Every Driver Holds Every CGC driver holds a current Queensland driver authorisation, issued by Transport and Main Roads for booked hire and other personalised transport work. Getting one takes a criminal history check, a driving history check and a medical fitness assessment, and it has to stay current for the driver to keep working. ## CGC’s Onboarding Course Before their first CGC job, every driver completes CGC’s own onboarding course. It runs through Queensland’s personalised transport requirements in four modules, each with a knowledge check, and finishes with a signed declaration and a certificate. ## The Vehicles - Each vehicle holds its own Queensland booked hire service licence, and every booking carries comprehensive commercial passenger insurance. - Late-model, unbranded vehicles, and drivers in smart-casual dress. - The fleet: [Toyota Camry or Tesla sedans](https://cgctransfers.com.au/fleet/sedan/), the [7-seat Kia Carnival](https://cgctransfers.com.au/fleet/kia-carnival/) and the 12-seater [VW Crafter (up to 11 passengers)](https://cgctransfers.com.au/fleet/vw-crafter/). - Baby seats, child seats and boosters meet AS/NZS 1754 and are fitted and checked by the driver before pickup, $35 each. ## What to Expect From Your Driver - **The day before:** your driver’s name and contact number by text or email by 5pm. - **On the day:** a message when your driver is on the way, and your flight tracked on every airport pickup. - **Gold Coast Airport:** your driver waits inside arrivals, at the exit near baggage collection, with your name on a sign. - **Brisbane Airport:** pickups are kerbside at the pre-booked pickup bays, with in-terminal meet and greet a $49 add-on. - **Your bags:** loading and unloading is part of every trip, and on night drop-offs your driver waits in the vehicle until you’re through the door. - **Paying:** every transfer is pre-paid by card through the secure payment link, so there’s nothing to pay in the car. ## Requests You can ask for a driver by name, including Chris, and we’ll assign them wherever the roster allows. A female driver can be requested too; it’s considered when the driver is assigned, but it’s a request rather than a guarantee. ## Questions About Our Drivers ### Are CGC drivers police checked? Every CGC driver holds a current Queensland driver authorisation from Transport and Main Roads, which requires a criminal history check, a driving history check and a medical fitness assessment. ### Who will my driver be? You’ll get your driver’s name and contact number by text or email by 5pm the day before, and a message when they’re on the way. CGC is owner-operated: Chris, owner-driver, coordinates every job and a team of local professional drivers. ### What training do CGC drivers do? Before their first job, every driver completes CGC’s onboarding course: four modules on Queensland’s personalised transport requirements, each with a knowledge check, then a signed declaration and a certificate. ### Are the vehicles licensed and insured? Yes. Each vehicle holds its own Queensland booked hire service licence and every booking carries comprehensive commercial passenger insurance. CGC itself holds Queensland Booking Entity Authorisation (BEA) 232082. ### Can I have the same driver again? You can request any driver by name and we’ll assign them wherever the roster allows. ### Can I request a female driver? Yes. Flag it at booking and it’s considered when the driver is assigned. It’s a request rather than a guarantee, because CGC is a small operation and availability on the day is the honest constraint. ### Will the driver help with our luggage? Yes. Loading and unloading is part of every trip, at both ends. On night drop-offs your driver waits in the vehicle until you’re through the door. ### How do I contact my driver on the day? Your driver’s name and mobile number come by text or email by 5pm the day before. You can also call or text CGC on 0416 131 285. ## Related Resources - [About CGC Airport Transfers](https://cgctransfers.com.au/about-us/) - [Our fleet](https://cgctransfers.com.au/fleet/) - [Safety and reliability guide](https://cgctransfers.com.au/most-reliable-airport-transfer-gold-coast/) - [How to track your driver](https://cgctransfers.com.au/how-to-track-your-airport-transfer-driver-gold-coast/) - [Solo female travellers](https://cgctransfers.com.au/airport-transfers-solo-female-travellers-gold-coast/) - [Senior airport transfers](https://cgctransfers.com.au/airport-transfer-seniors-gold-coast/) - [Baby seats and child seats](https://cgctransfers.com.au/child-seats-airport-transfers-gold-coast/) - [Customer reviews](https://cgctransfers.com.au/reviews/) ## Book With a Named, Checked Driver — Get Your Exact Quote Fixed fares per vehicle, GST included, locked at booking, with your driver named by 5pm the day before.
