Booking a family van for weddings, visits and family trips
Booking rides · Published · 2 min read
Pakistani families travel together. A wedding, a visit to relatives or meeting someone off a train usually means two cars, or one very crowded one. A family van takes everyone at once.
What you get
JaldiGO's family van has seven seats and AC, so elders, children and the bags all fit in one vehicle. Like every JaldiGO ride, it comes to your door and takes you to the address you set, at a fixed fare shown before you book.
When families book a van
- Weddings and mehndi functions, especially when the venue is in another town.
- Visiting relatives with elders who should not ride a bike.
- Meeting family at the railway station or on the GT Road. See rides to the station and bus stand.
- Hospital visits when several people are going.
- Families back from abroad, with luggage. See booking rides for family back home.
Van or two cars?
For five to seven people, one van usually costs less than two cars and keeps everyone together. The app shows the van fare next to the car fares for your exact trip, so you can compare before you book. For up to six people on a short trip, a ChingChi can be cheaper still.
Booking tips
- Book a few minutes before everyone is ready, so the van arrives as you walk out.
- Set the pickup pin on the exact gate, especially in a busy mohalla.
- For longer trips between towns, check the fare in the app before you decide; it is worked out from the real road distance.
