Veezu is a UK private hire operator running local taxi services in a number of UK cities. CabsOn is a UK private hire operator focused on pre-booked journeys and airport transfers, with a business portal for company travel. Check Veezu's current coverage and prices directly.

When Veezu may suit you better

  • You mainly need local, immediate taxis in a city where Veezu operates — CabsOn is pre-booked only, with at least 3 hours' notice.

When CabsOn may suit you better

  • Most of your trips are known in advance: flights, train connections, visitors arriving for meetings.
  • Your people travel between cities, and you'd rather have a single account than one per local firm — London and its airports, Manchester, the West Midlands, Leeds, Liverpool, Southampton and Basingstoke are all covered.
  • Finance wants the price agreed up front: every CabsOn fare is fixed at booking, and junior staff need a manager's sign-off before a ride is confirmed.
  • Your company isn't VAT-registered or can't reclaim it — our fares carry no VAT, and account billing gathers them onto a weekly or monthly invoice.

Several offices, one account

Local operators are often strongest in their own city. If your company has offices in, say, Manchester and London, or Wolverhampton and Southampton, a single CabsOn account covers both: put each office in its own department, give each a monthly budget, and see every journey on the same invoice and reports. Long journeys between cities — Leeds to Manchester Airport, Wolverhampton to Heathrow — are quoted as one fixed fare, not stitched together from two local firms.

What you can book for Manchester

Saloon

  • Up to 4 passengers
  • 2 standard suitcases
  • Most economical option

Default choice for solo travel, couples and pairs heading to the airport. Ford Mondeo, VW Passat or similar.

Estate

  • Up to 4 passengers
  • 4 suitcases

  • Up to 8 passengers
  • 6 suitcases capacity
  • Volkswagen Transporter or similar

Single-vehicle transport for groups of up to 8. Common on hen and stag bookings, sports teams, family airport runs and corporate group transfers.

Chauffeur

  • Mercedes S-Class
  • Suited driver
  • VIP and wedding work

Flagship class for VIP travel, weddings, premium events and corporate visiting directors. Hourly hire from 3 hours minimum or fixed-route.

Every booking includes

What is in the fixed fare

Flight tracking on every airport pickup

Pickup time auto-adjusts to actual landing. No driver-side panic if your flight runs late.

60 minutes free waiting on arrivals

Counted from when your flight actually lands, with airport parking included. Plenty of buffer for immigration, baggage claim and customs. After that, waiting is £9 per 15 minutes in a saloon.

Drop-off charge included

The airport drop-off fee is included in the quote, not added at the kerb. So is any congestion or road charge on your route.

Optional meet and greet

Driver waits at the terminal arrivals exit with a name board. Add it when you book; the price is shown in your quote.

Card or corporate invoice

Pay securely by card when you book. Corporate accounts get monthly invoicing with PO numbers and itemised receipts.

Child and booster seats

£20 per seat, fitted before pickup. Confirm the seat type at booking so we match the right vehicle.
