Six things every parent account gets,
at no extra cost.

The same driver, every time

Your son or daughter is met by a familiar face — not a stranger from an app. Most parent accounts ride with Gordon, Wendy or Martin every trip.

We update you, not them

“Lily is in the car, ETA Edinburgh Airport 06:48.” A WhatsApp message to you at every pickup and drop-off. They keep their phone in their pocket.

Recurring & saved trips

Book term-start arrivals, exam-week airport runs and the Easter exodus once. We'll handle the rest. Move dates by replying to an email.

One monthly statement

All trips on one bill, paid by card or BACS. No fishing receipts out of WhatsApp threads with your 19-year-old.

No app to download

Everything runs over email, WhatsApp and SMS. Works just as well for grandparents arriving for graduation as it does for parents.

All drivers PVG-checked

Every driver is licensed by Fife Council, PVG-checked, and has been working with St Andrews families for years.

Four moments we're built for

The trips you do
every year, anyway.

St Andrews students do four major trips a year: arrival, Christmas, Easter and end of term. Book all four in October, never think about it again.

Freshers' Week arrival

We meet your son or daughter at Edinburgh or Glasgow Airport, help with the luggage, drive them straight to halls. We text you when they're in the car and when they're unloaded at the door.

End of term & Easter

An early run to the airport — sometimes at 4am. Booked once in October, runs automatically every term. You'll get a confirmation a week before.

Exam-week emergencies

Phone left at home. Last train missed. We're the call your child makes at 11pm — and it doesn't cost you any more than a normal run.

Graduation week

Four cars, three hotels, multiple ceremonies. We'll build the schedule, drive the families and the grandparents, and make sure no one misses the procession.

From parents, in their words.

Three of the dozens of reviews we've had from St Andrews families.

“Our daughter is in her third year. We've never used anyone else. Knowing Wendy is collecting her at 4am has saved my husband and me a lot of sleep.”
Sarah, London
Parent of MA English student
“He sent me a photo of my son safely in the car. I'm in Hong Kong. It mattered more than I can explain.”
Eric, Hong Kong
Parent of 1st-year
“Half the parents I know at St Andrews use them. There's a reason. They turn up.”
Mhairi, Edinburgh
Parent of two students, four years running
