Frequently asked questions

Is my journey confirmed when I send a request?

No. Sending a WhatsApp message or receiving a booking reference means you have requested a journey. Please wait for our Booking confirmed email before treating the journey as booked.

What is the difference between Payment received and Booking confirmed?

Payment received means your online payment has been verified. Booking confirmed means we have accepted your journey. Payment alone does not guarantee availability or confirm a booking.

How can I pay?

Departures from Folkestone, local journeys and London transfers can be paid cash or card in the car, with optional online payment after availability is agreed. Airport collections require verified advance online payment before confirmation. Use the payment option for your selected journey and check the amount before paying.

Are airport charges included?

The airport form shows the fare, drop-off charge or Meet & Greet fee, applicable crossing supplement and total separately. Check the total for your selected airport and direction before sending your request.

What does airport Meet & Greet include?

The £15 Meet & Greet fee includes up to 30 minutes of airport pickup parking, measured from car park entry. Parking beyond 30 minutes is charged separately at the airport rate. We agree meeting and waiting arrangements before booking.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

Send your flight number and terminal with your request and contact us if your plans change. We will review the collection arrangements with you. Any extra waiting or parking charges must be discussed; unlimited waiting is not included.

How far in advance should I request an airport transfer?

Airport booking requests require at least 12 hours’ notice. For a more urgent journey, contact us to check availability. Local requests do not have this 12-hour restriction.

How many passengers and bags can travel?

The booking is for a car with up to 4 passengers. Tell us the number and size of your bags, including any large or unusual items, so we can confirm everything fits.

Can I travel with children or pets?

Please tell us about children, any child-seat requirements, and pets before booking so we can agree suitable arrangements. For France & Pet Travel journeys, declare all pets and check the travel-document information on our European transfers page.

Can I add a stop or change my journey?

Tell us about extra stops and address or time changes before the journey. We must agree availability and any change to the fare before confirming the revised arrangements.

What if I need to cancel or you cannot accept my request?

Contact us on WhatsApp or email with your booking reference. Cancel at least 24 hours before pickup for a full refund of the transport fare. For later cancellations or no-shows, any deduction is limited to justified losses. Crossing tickets are treated separately. Unconfirmed requests and journeys we decline or cancel are refunded in full. Read our cancellation and refund policy.

Are ferry or LeShuttle tickets included in the France & Pet Travel prices?

The displayed transfer prices exclude the crossing ticket. We arrange the crossing for our vehicle, driver and all travelling passengers, including declared pets where applicable. Crossing costs and the final total are agreed in your personal quote; the quote request does not take payment.

I have not received my confirmation email. What should I do?

Check your spam folder and the email address entered on the form. If you only have Payment received, the journey may still be awaiting our acceptance. Contact us on WhatsApp with your booking reference if you need help.
