From the tarmac to your hotel without the taxi stand

The experience
Your greeter is waiting inside the arrivals terminal when you clear customs, holding a sign with your name. No scanning the crowd for a driver, no guessing which car is yours. They spot you first, help with your bags, and walk you down to the transportation floor where your driver is already there with the air-conditioning running. The whole handoff takes maybe five minutes, and then you're moving through Istanbul traffic toward the Blue Mosque area while sipping complimentary water and checking email on the onboard WiFi.
The driver knows the route to your hotel already. You don't have to navigate or explain turns, and they'll reconfirm your exact address before leaving the airport so there's no confusion about where you're headed. All the vehicles are premium, cleaned daily and disinfected before and after each journey, which matters more than it sounds when you've just landed and want to decompress without thinking about who sat in the seat before you. The air-conditioning works, the WiFi actually connects, and if your flight gets delayed or cancelled, Fat Taxi will shift your booking at no extra cost, even if you can't give the standard six-hour notice.
When you arrive at your destination, the driver helps unload your luggage and that's it. You're checked in mentally before you walk through the hotel door. The whole point of this transfer is that it removes the airport-to-hotel negotiation from your arrival day, which is when you're most tired and least interested in haggling over a fare or worrying whether the driver knows where they're going.
