As soon as you make a booking with us, you will be issued with a confirmation email that contains the details of your journey, but what happens next? Everything you need to know is explained below:

Travelling to the airport?

If you are being picked up from any location other than an airport, we’ll call you to confirm the details of your airport transfer up to 48 hours prior to your scheduled pick-up time.

Our drivers always arrive early, as soon as they do we’ll send you a SMS to let you know we're ready to take you to the airport.

Travelling from the airport?

We understand that planes can be delayed (and sometimes even early). To manage this uncertainty we monitor flights to ensure we're there when you need us.

Once you've landed we will send you an SMS with the details of your driver who will be ready to collect you once you have picked up your luggage. He or she will wait you at the exit to the customs channel and will be holding a pink No.1 Traveller placard. See image

If for any reason you struggle to find your driver, or have any other queries regarding your trip, just call us on 08442 64 64 40.
