FAQS

Will I receive confirmation of my booking?2020-11-11T21:32:29+00:00

Yes. We aim to respond to all enquiries made via the website or by email within one hour. We may contact you by phone, so we can discuss timings and travel arrangements. All bookings will receive either a confirmation email with a unique booking reference number or text message.

What will happen if my connecting flight or train is delayed – will you still meet me?2020-11-11T21:32:41+00:00

Yes. One of our chauffeurs will be there to meet you in spite of any delays.

We monitor flight arrivals and use real-time road traffic updates, so your chauffeur will be aware of any travel delays. A delay may mean that you have to change your travel arrangements, which we can usually accommodate.

What is your cancellation policy?2020-11-11T21:32:58+00:00

We work on a pre-assigned vehicle and chauffeur basis to guarantee your booking. Once the vehicle is assigned to your booking it is unavailable to be used for any other transfers.

Cancellation charges apply in the following circumstances:

  • Cancellation within 3 hours of collection time – 50%
  • Cancellation within 1 hour of collection time – 100% charge
  • Vehicle has departed for the collection address – 100% charge

Please inform us of any changes to your travel plans as soon possible – because we operate a large fleet we can accommodate changes to travel plans.

What is the difference between an account and card booking?2020-11-11T21:33:10+00:00

We prioritise and offer a guaranteed service to our account clients.

Although we aim to offer a guaranteed service at all times, to all clients, this can sometimes be affected during exceptionally busy periods.

In addition to priority bookings, our account clients enjoy the benefit of settling their account either via monthly invoice or credit / charge card. No surcharge applies for payment by card.

My travel plans have changed – what do I do and what will I be charged?2020-11-11T21:33:21+00:00

Please call our Client Services Team on +44 1707 888 000. This number will be answered 24 hours a day. We will accommodate your changes.

So long as we have not started the journey to collect you and it is an amendment to a booking then no charge will apply.

If the car has already departed for the collection then a minimal charge for time and mileage will apply (based on at what point the vehicle is at before being instructed to stand down).

If the booking is a cancellation then our cancellation policy charges will apply.

My train times have changed, do you check these?2020-11-11T21:33:32+00:00

Unfortunately we only monitor flight arrival times. If your train is delayed then please get in touch to let us know your new arrival time. You can amend your booking online or by calling us on +44 1707 888000.

Our estimation of the journey time will be based on the time of day and route.
