Questions
How far in advance should I book a taxi?
We recommend booking at least 24 hours in advance, though last-minute bookings may be available. Airport transfers require minimum 3-hour notice for domestic flights and 4 hours for international departures.
Do you charge extra for late-night journeys?
Our standard rates apply 24/7 with no additional charges for late-night journeys. The quoted price includes all standard fees, though additional charges may apply for waiting time beyond agreed parameters.
Can I request a specific vehicle type?
We offer standard saloon cars, executive vehicles, and wheelchair-accessible minibuses. Specific vehicle requests require 48-hour notice and are subject to availability confirmation at booking.
What happens if my journey runs over the estimated time?
Drivers monitor journey progress and contact the office if delays exceed 15 minutes. We adjust billing in real-time for extended journeys, with all additional charges agreed with customers before incurring extra costs.
Are child car seats provided?
We supply EU-approved child car seats when requested at booking. Parents may bring their own seats, though our drivers cannot install customer-provided safety equipment due to insurance regulations.
How do you handle lost property?
All vehicles are inspected after each journey. Found items are stored securely for 14 days. Contact our office within 24 hours of travel with specific details about lost items for collection arrangements.
