How much notice is required?

The more notice you can give us, the better it is. Ideally, at least a minimum of 48 hours’ notice is appreciated although we understand this may not always be possible. Bookings at short notice are accepted subject to availability of a chauffeur and car.

Where do I meet my chauffeur?

We have designated meeting points in the main airport terminals; we can forward to you our fact sheet showing these points.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

We monitor all incoming flights and will know of any delays prior to your chauffeur leaving base. However, if you are changing flights and your initial flight is delayed causing you to miss your connecting flight please contact us as soon as possible and inform us of your new flight details.

Do you charge waiting time?

60 minutes grace period is given to all incoming passengers at the airport. The grace period is timed from the indicated arrival time when the chauffeur leaves our base.

On all other occasions waiting time is charged on an hourly rate in 15 minute units.
