Why Provide Your Flight Number?
We strongly encourage clients to share their flight numbers when booking airport transfers. This allows our chauffeurs to monitor real-time flight updates, adjust for any delays, and ensure a seamless pickup without inconvenience.
What Happens If My Flight Is Delayed?
We monitor all airport transfers in real-time. If your flight is delayed, we adjust the pickup time accordingly. Please provide your flight number to ensure our drivers are updated with any changes and are there when you arrive.
What Is The Maximum Wait Time For Airport Pickups?
Once your booking is confirmed, the maximum wait time at the airport is one hour, free of charge. If the driver is able to wait beyond that, additional fees may apply. If the wait time exceeds this limit and the driver is unavailable to stay longer, the booking may be canceled. To avoid delays, please provide flight details for accurate tracking.
What If Luggage Doesn’t Fit?
If your luggage doesn’t fit due to incorrect vehicle selection or an unspecified amount, we’ll do our best to resolve the issue promptly. However, this may cause delays, and additional transport arrangements might incur extra charges. Always specify luggage details during booking to ensure a smooth journey.

Pets can be allowed in the vehicle, depending on the type of service and vehicle booked. Please inform us in advance to ensure we can provide the appropriate vehicle and prepare for any cleaning requirements after your journey.
What Happens If A Driver Is Unavailable For My Booked Ride?
If a driver is unavailable, our platform automatically dispatches a licensed and verified replacement, ensuring your trip meets our safety and quality standards.
Can I Share My Phone Number With The Driver?
No, exchanging phone numbers with drivers is strictly prohibited.
Why Can’t I Arrange Rides Directly With The Driver?
Arranging rides outside the platform bypasses our safety, quality, and accountability measures. Drivers may send unlicensed individuals or acquaintances to complete the ride, and these substitute drivers may use vehicles that haven’t undergone our mandatory inspections, putting your safety at risk.
What Happens If I Book Rides Privately With A Driver?
We cannot guarantee the quality, safety, or accountability of the trip. You lose access to platform support for any problems. The driver risks being permanently banned from our platform and others for breaching our terms and conditions.
What Are The Risks Of Private Bookings With A Driver?
Booking directly with a driver removes our ability to ensure safety, quality, or accountability. Without platform support, any issues will not be addressed, and the driver may face permanent removal from the service.
How Does The Platform Ensure Vehicle And Driver Quality?
All vehicles undergo rigorous inspections every six months. Drivers are required to have valid PCO licenses and meet strict compliance standards. These measures ensure that every ride is safe, reliable, and meets legal and industry requirements.
Why Should I Book Exclusively Through The Platform?
Guaranteed safety and quality standards, 24/7 platform support for any issues during your trip, and reliable accountability in case of driver unavailability or vehicle problems. By adhering to these guidelines, you help us maintain a safe, secure, and professional environment for both passengers and drivers.
What If A Different Car Appears At Pickup?
If a different vehicle arrives, it could be due to unforeseen circumstances, such as the initial driver being unable to arrive on time. In such cases, we will initially provide a vehicle within the same category and, if necessary, upgrade to a higher-category vehicle at no extra charge. Rest assured, we will never downgrade your booking.
What Is Buffering Time, And Why Should I Consider It?
Buffering time refers to additional time you may want to include to account for potential delays, especially for non-EU passengers who may experience longer security or immigration checks. Please specify your desired buffering time in the comments section during booking.
