Is it safe to take a taxi from Zvartnots airport at night, or should I book a transfer?

What you see in the arrivals hall at night

Zvartnots has a single exit into the arrivals hall. The BarevTrip driver waits there with a sign bearing your name at the landmark shown on your meeting card. The dispatcher sends the card the day before together with the driver's name and phone number and the car's model, colour and registration number; the card lists the landmark and phone numbers. Check the driver's name, car and amount against the card, and get into only the named driver's car; if you cannot see the driver, call the numbers on the card.

When to send the request for a night flight

You can send the request for a night arrival at any time: the dispatcher is available on WhatsApp and Telegram around the clock and confirms requests at night too. After sending it, you get a code BT-XXXX and a confirmation deadline: "we'll confirm by HH:MM Yerevan time"; the confirmation comes via WhatsApp, Telegram or email. If you land before that deadline, call the dispatcher — the request form shows the number.

If the flight is late, there is nothing you need to do: we track the landing ourselves and wait 60 minutes after the actual touchdown, with no surcharge for the delay.

Price and what is included

The Zvartnots Airport ↔ Yerevan transfer: 15 km, about 30 minutes; the price per car on November 7, 2026 is 10,000 AMD for a sedan and 14,000 AMD for a minivan. It is an exact price, not "from", and it is the same at night: night pickups and holidays carry no extra charge. It includes the meeting with a name sign, flight tracking, 60 minutes of waiting after landing, help with luggage and a child seat. There is one possible surcharge, at a rate known before you book: an unplanned stop, a change of route or waiting beyond what is included.

A sedan takes up to 3 passengers with 3 suitcases or 4 with 2; a minivan takes up to 7 passengers. We choose the car by passengers and luggage, so there is no class to pick.

Payment: after confirmation

First the dispatcher checks the car and confirms the request; nothing is paid before confirmation and there is no deposit. After confirmation you pay by card via a link (Visa, Mastercard) or in cash to the driver after the trip, in AMD, USD, EUR or RUB; the site shows amounts in USD, EUR and RUB as approximate, marked "≈". Free cancellation up to 24 hours before pickup, Yerevan time, and one free reschedule up to the same deadline; the deadline is shown in the confirmation and on the status page.

Taxi app or transfer: the difference

A comparison by service rules, without figures: app tariffs change. Our price is per car: one, two or three travellers with three suitcases ride in a sedan for the same amount; four travellers ride in a sedan too, if they have no more than two suitcases.

Who is driving and who is responsible for the trip

We answer "is it safe" not with a promise but with how we work:

• The cars and drivers of the BarevTrip fleet pass our own selection: at least 5 years of driving, a car built in 2018 or later, a fire extinguisher and a first-aid kit in every car.
• We check the documents before the driver's first trip with us: the driving licence, the car registration, a valid roadworthiness inspection and the compulsory motor insurance required by the law of Armenia. The full standard is on the Driver standard page.
• Our drivers speak several languages — ask the dispatcher about yours.
• The trip is sold by BarevTrip, and we are responsible for all of it: the car, the driver, the time, the route and the price. If the driver does not arrive, we replace the car as fast as we can or refund in full and give a voucher for your next trip.

At night with children

Child seats are free, and for children under 7 a seat is compulsory: state the number of children and the age of each in the request, and the seat type comes with the confirmation. Children count as passengers when we choose the car, so list them in the request together with the adults.
