  • You must be at least 18 years old to book.
  • Your booking is confirmed only when we send you a confirmation by email, text or WhatsApp. If you do not get one, please contact us.

  • We suggest booking at least 24 hours ahead. Same-day rides are possible when a chauffeur and vehicle are free.

  • Tolls, parking and airport fees.
  • Extra stops, extra time or a change of route that you ask for during the ride.
  • Waiting time beyond the free time listed in these terms.
  • Late-night, holiday or special event surcharges, if they apply. We will tell you before you confirm.

We accept payment methods shown in the booking system. We may place a hold or take a deposit on your card to confirm a booking. Corporate customers may be invoiced if we have approved a corporate account. Promotions and discounts are limited to the rides and dates named in the offer, and cannot be combined unless we say so.

5. Cancellations, changes and no-shows

  • Cancel at least 24 hours before your pickup time for a full refund. For large group and special event bookings, cancel at least 72 hours
  • If you cancel later than that, we may charge the full price of the ride, because we have reserved a chauffeur and vehicle for you.
  • If no one meets the chauffeur at the pickup place, or you cannot be reached after the wait time ends, we will treat it as a no-show and the full price may apply.
  • To change your time, place or vehicle, contact us as early as you can. We will do our best, but changes depend on availability and may change the price.
  • Refunds go back to the original payment method within 7 to 10 business days.
  • If we have to cancel, for example because of a vehicle problem, we will tell you as soon as possible and either arrange a replacement ride or refund you in full.

6. Airport pickups and waiting time

We track your flight so your chauffeur can adjust to early or late arrivals. To make that work, give us your airline and correct flight number when you book. For airport pickups, your chauffeur will meet you at baggage claim with a name sign, unless we agree on another spot.

  • Free waiting time for airport pickups is 30 minutes after your flight lands.
  • Free waiting time for all other pickups is 15 minutes after the scheduled time.
  • After the free time, waiting is billed at $__ per 15 minutes.
  • If your flight is delayed and we are tracking it, we do not charge extra for that delay.
  • If you book a different flight or change your arrival without telling us, waiting fees may apply.

7. Hourly service and extra time

Hourly service has a minimum of 2 hours. Time starts at the scheduled pickup time and ends when you are dropped off or the ride is done. Time after the minimum is billed in 15-minute steps. If you want to keep your chauffeur longer, ask as early as you can. We will extend the ride if the chauffeur and vehicle are free.

8. Vehicles, seats and luggage

You can see the vehicles we offer on our Fleet page. Passenger and luggage limits depend on the vehicle, and they are confirmed when you book. Please do not go over the seat count or the safe luggage load. If we send a vehicle of equal or better class because of a repair or a schedule change, we will tell you. Photos on our website show the style of the vehicle and may not show the exact car sent to you.

  • Illegal drugs and weapons are not allowed.
  • Alcohol: Passengers 21 and older may bring sealed drinks only. Open containers are not allowed in the vehicle.

  • A cleaning fee of $__ may apply if a vehicle needs special cleaning after your ride.
  • Children must use the right car seat or booster for their age and size, as required by law. Tell us when you book if you need one, and we will arrange it if available. Passengers under 18 must ride with an adult.
  • Service animals are welcome. Please ask us before you bring any other pet.

Your chauffeur may refuse or end a ride if anyone acts in a way that puts safety at risk. In that case, the ride is not refundable, and you may need to pay for the time used.

10. Delays and things we cannot control

Our chauffeurs plan every trip carefully, but we cannot control traffic, weather, road closures, accidents, large events or airport delays. Estimated arrival times are our best guess, not a promise. Please leave extra time for important flights and meetings. We are not responsible for missed flights, missed meetings or other losses caused by events outside our control.

11. Lost items

Contact us as soon as you notice something is missing, ideally within 48 hours. We will try to find it and return it. If we ship it, the shipping cost is paid by the owner. We keep found items for 30 days. Belongings are carried at your own risk.

12. Insurance and liability

We operate with the licenses and insurance that the law requires for our service. We are responsible for the harm we cause through our own negligence, as the law provides. To the greatest extent the law allows, we are not responsible for indirect or extra losses, such as lost business, lost income or missed events. Nothing in these terms limits any right you have under the law that cannot be limited.
