Transport to Thomson Medical Centre

Bringing a newborn home, with the seat already fitted.

Where we meet you

The usual request is a parent and newborn going home. Infant seat S$35 if you need one fitted; say so when you book. Same S$65 fare as any other hospital.

Thomson Medical is a maternity hospital first, and the trip we run most from it is a parent and a newborn going home. That makes it the one hospital on this list where the seat matters more than the door.

The infant seat is the booking

A newborn needs a rear-facing capsule, and it has to be requested when you book so the chauffeur fits it before arriving — not at the kerb with a baby in your arms. It is S$35, charged per journey. If you are being collected and brought back, that is two journeys.

Discharge timing

Maternity discharges move. Give us the expected time and we will hold rather than dispatch to it, because a car that arrives on the dot and leaves again is no use to anyone waiting for paperwork.

What the fare includes

S$65 base fare in a Luxury MPV to any hospital on the island — it does not change with distance or traffic, and there is no GST. A pickup at Changi Airport is charged as an airport arrival, S$85. A late-night pickup between 23:00 and 07:00 adds S$20, and a date-based surcharge can apply (F1 Grand Prix week). Whatever applies is shown in the quote before you pay. One companion travels free. If the passenger can move from a wheelchair into a car seat with some help, the chauffeur helps them in and carries a folding wheelchair in the boot at no extra charge. Our cars cannot carry a passenger seated in their wheelchair. Waiting and a return leg are quoted with the booking rather than added afterwards.

Transit Line is an independent LTA-licensed chauffeur company, not affiliated with or endorsed by Thomson Medical Centre, and provides transport only — not medical or nursing care. For an emergency, call 995.

Questions about this hospital

We are bringing a newborn home — what do we need?

An infant seat, which is S$35 fitted on top of the S$65 fare. Say so when you book and it is installed before we arrive. Our First Ride Home package is that pairing at S$100, with help getting the bags to your door.

Does the fare change with distance or traffic?

Not with distance or traffic. S$65 is the base fare in the Luxury MPV from anywhere on the island, with no GST and no meter. A pickup at Changi Airport is charged as an airport arrival, S$85. A pickup between 23:00 and 07:00 adds S$20, and a date-based surcharge can apply — F1 Grand Prix week is the one that affects this service. Whatever applies is in the quote before you pay. One companion travels free.

Can you wait while we finish the discharge paperwork?

Yes — tell us when you book and we quote the waiting time with the trip rather than adding it afterwards. Discharge rarely runs to the hour given, so it is better to say so in advance than to have the chauffeur arrive to an open-ended wait.

Can you take a wheelchair, or someone who needs help to the door?

Yes, if the passenger can move from the wheelchair into a car seat with some help — tick the wheelchair box when booking. The chauffeur helps them in, puts a folding wheelchair in the boot at no extra charge, and helps with bags to the door. Our cars cannot carry a passenger seated in their wheelchair. We provide transport only, not medical or nursing care.
