Why PrimeKar

Three things that decide whether a ride actually works.

Not adjectives. The parts you'd want to know before trusting an important trip to someone.

A delayed flight doesn't leave your pickup on the old schedule.

A delayed flight doesn't leave your pickup on the old schedule.

For arrivals into Calgary International you can add the flight you're arriving on. It's optional, and it's what lets PrimeKar track the arriving flight. Your 45 minutes of complimentary airport waiting then start from when you actually land, not from the time printed on the ticket.

Airport transfers
A 5:15 a.m. pickup is an ordinary booking.

PrimeKar operates rides at every hour of every day, and the phone is answered 24 hours a day.

Booked ahead. The app requires about two hours' lead time.

Capacity you can plan around.

Capacity you can plan around.

PrimeKar Executive carries up to 4 passengers and Elite XL up to 6. Those are PrimeKar service caps. For luggage we publish conservative recommendations rather than maximums: up to 3 large checked suitcases for Executive, up to 4 for Elite XL. Real capacity depends on your bag dimensions and the vehicle assigned, which is why the guidance is deliberately cautious.

Mountain routes

Calgary to the mountains, all year.

Direct private transportation from Calgary or Calgary International to Canmore, Banff, Lake Louise and Jasper. A straightforward trip can be handled point to point; a more involved itinerary is arranged as a custom trip. The routes run year-round, conditions permitting, and the vehicles used for winter mountain trips run winter-rated tires.

Arriving at YYC and continuing west? The airport pickup and the onward mountain trip can be arranged together, with the inbound flight tracked as usual.

Go to contact
A call, an email or a form on its own doesn't confirm a booking. Need something at shorter notice than the app allows? Depending on availability, we may sometimes be able to arrange something sooner.

Corporate

Accounts for teams that travel often.

Centralised billing, priority booking, and a direct line for account questions, set up with a person rather than through the consumer app. Tell us how your team travels and we'll respond within 24 hours.

Beyond Your Own Rides

Sometimes the ride isn't for you.

A parent flying in for the weekend. A partner heading downtown for dinner. A guest visiting Calgary who you'd rather not have circling for parking. PrimeKar rides can be booked for someone else entirely. Enter their pickup details in the app, or tell us and we'll set it up. The passenger doesn't need to install the app.

Arrange a ride for someone else

Is this for you?

When this is worth it.

PrimeKar is pre-scheduled transportation. You plan it before you need it rather than summoning one when the moment arrives. That suits some trips much better than others.

Worth planning ahead

  • An arrival into YYC
  • A departure from YYC
  • An early-morning trip
  • A business meeting that matters
  • A wedding or an event
  • Canmore, Banff, Lake Louise or Jasper
  • Any trip where the timing is the point

Spontaneous or last-minute

  • A ride you decide on five minutes before leaving
  • A plan that changes minute to minute

PrimeKar is built to be scheduled, not summoned.

That isn't a gap we're working around. It's what makes the planned trips dependable.

When's the next one?

Book it in the app, or ask us to arrange it. The phone is answered whatever time you're reading this.
