Do GrabCar fares include children?

Ugh, GrabCar and kids? Let me tell you, it’s a bit of a head-scratcher sometimes.

On July 12th, I was in Bangkok, trying to get my nieces (two of ’em!) and myself to the airport. GrabCar’s app never explicitly mentioned kid’s fares. Four people total. It cost me around 400 baht, if I recall correctly.

The important thing is that kids count towards the passenger limit. Four people max in a regular GrabCar. More than four? You’ll need a bigger ride. GrabCarXL, or a six-seater. Simple as that.

My experience shows GrabCar charges a standard fare regardless of passenger age; passengers under 12 get free rides? Nope.

So yeah, kids ride for free? False. They are passengers. Four people fit in a standard GrabCar. Remember that.

Can 5 people sit in a 4 seater Grab?

Four seats. Five people. It’s cramped, right? I know it. My friend’s birthday, last 2023. We tried. Didn’t work.

One person had to take another ride. That sucked. Really did. Cost more. More than just money, you know? The whole mood was off.

GrabCar’s policy is clear. Four passengers max. The app said it. It’s written everywhere.

  • Rules are rules. Harsh but true.
  • Safety is important too. Overcrowding is dangerous.
  • I remember the driver’s face. Annoyed. I felt bad.
  • Should have planned better. My fault. Always is, isn’t it?

Seriously, avoid it. It’s not worth the hassle. Learn from my mistake. Don’t be like me that night.

Can I book Grab for my family?

Yes.

Grab allows booking for others. Manage profiles. Simple.

Passenger identity matters. Safety, you see. And account security. Eh, protects everyone.

  • How?
    • Add profiles.
    • Select passenger.
    • Book. Done.
  • Why?
    • Accountability is key.
    • Peace of mind, maybe.
    • Helps with lost items, duh.

It is just a button, really. But, life’s a button. Push it.

What is the maximum seating capacity of Grab?

Four. A fragile number. Echoes in vast car interiors.

Four… the soft breaths, blurred faces. Briefly illuminated.

Four.

  • Four: The whispered limit.
  • Memories of laughter and shared snacks on Rizal Avenue.
  • Only four souls allowed.
  • Four stories merging. Then splitting again.
  • A quartet of fleeting connections.

The air hangs thick. Smells of cheap gasoline. The city blurring outside.

Always four. No more.

Can you use Grab 24/7?

Grab’s 24/7? Yeah, right. Like finding a decent mango shake at 3 AM. It’s theoretically 24/7. More like 23/7 with a generous helping of “technical difficulties.”

Manila? Sweet dreams. Traffic’s a beast, especially near Ninoy Aquino. It’s like navigating a flooded parking lot filled with angry turtles.

International Airport? Bless your heart. Expect delays comparable to the waiting time for a unicorn at a llama convention.

Here’s the lowdown:

  • Reliability: About as reliable as a politician’s promise.
  • GPS Sharing: Works great… until it doesn’t. Then you’re playing hide-and-seek with your driver, a game I’m personally terrible at, FYI.
  • Manila Coverage: It’s there. Somewhere. Probably.
  • 24/7 Service: More like “most of the time, if the app doesn’t crash, and the driver isn’t stuck in a three-hour traffic jam.”

My buddy Mike, a total Grab addict, once waited an hour for a ride from the airport last Tuesday. An hour! He swore he saw a family of monkeys playing mahjong in the meantime.

My experience? Mixed bag. One time my driver sang opera. Another time, my phone died halfway through the ride, leaving me stranded near a karaoke bar. Don’t ask.
