Groups & luggage

Maxi Taxi Sydney — 7 & 11 Seater Maxi Cabs

Request a larger vehicle for a group, a family, or a trip with more luggage than a sedan will take — up to 11 seats across the Sydney metro area.

  • 7 seater maxi
  • 11 seater for larger groups
  • Luggage count on the booking

7 seater

The maxi covers groups of up to seven

The Maxi option in the booking form is for up to 7 passengers. It is the usual choice for a family with bags, a group heading to the airport together, or a night out where splitting across two sedans does not make sense.

Set the passenger count first. Vehicles that cannot take the number of people you entered are shown as unavailable, so the option you pick always fits the group.

  • Up to 7 passengers in a maxi
  • Luggage count from 0 to 7 on the same form
  • Vehicle options filter by passenger count

11 seater

Larger parties can request an 11 seater

For 8 or more passengers the 11 seater is the vehicle the form keeps available. It is a request rather than a guaranteed allocation — availability for the larger vehicles is confirmed by dispatch after the booking is sent.

If your group size is uncertain, book for the number you expect and add a note. Changing a submitted booking is a phone call.

Luggage

Room for the bags, not just the seats

A group of six with six suitcases needs more than six seats. The luggage count sits alongside the passenger count on the booking form so the vehicle is matched to both.

For airport runs with a full set of checked bags, or a trip where someone is carrying sports gear or an instrument, put the detail in the notes field and choose the larger vehicle.

Airport

Maxi taxis for Sydney Airport

For a group airport transfer, plan for passengers and luggage together. Use the airport panel to set your terminal and flight number, then choose Maxi or 11 seater as the vehicle.

Airport minimum fares and the airport pickup toll apply to maxi bookings in the same way as any other vehicle, and are included in the estimate shown on confirmation.

Questions

Maxi taxi questions

How many seats are in a maxi taxi?
Our Maxi booking option accommodates up to seven passengers. For eight to eleven passengers, request an 11 seater. Include children and every travelling companion in the passenger count. Dispatch confirms vehicle availability after submission.
Can I book a maxi taxi to or from Sydney Airport?
Yes. Select Sydney Airport and T1, T2 or T3, then choose Maxi or 11 seater. Add the flight number for an arrival and provide the number of bags. A terminal pickup still requires agreed meeting arrangements with dispatch.
Can nine passengers travel in one taxi?
For nine passengers, choose the 11 seater rather than the seven-passenger Maxi. Enter nine as the passenger count and list all luggage and oversized equipment so dispatch can confirm a suitable vehicle.
How much does a maxi taxi in Sydney cost?
The route, vehicle, pickup time and requested extras affect the price. A fare estimate range is shown after the request is sent. Tolls, airport parking and waiting may be charged separately. Call to discuss your group and route before booking if needed.
