All passengers are advised to have adequate travel insurance prior to booking.

No responsibilities for costs are to be refunded to any passengers who do not wait for their driver and take alternative transport.

OEC Airport Transfers does not accept any responsibility in any way if the passenger/luggage requirements exceed the capacity of the vehicle booked. If you are unsure about the capacity of the vehicle booked please contact OEC Airport Transfers customer services team immediately.

However, customers requesting this are not entitled to any additional waiting time beyond the requested period. No compensation will be offered if the passenger(s) is ready earlier than planned and has to wait until the scheduled collection time for the driver to arrive.

OEC Airport Transfers will assume you wish for a ‘standard’ collection unless otherwise informed in writing in advance of the journey by email to sales@oecairporttransfers.co.uk

Waiting time for all other journeys will be charged at £20/hr pro rata, either from the scheduled collection time or for any stop en-route.

Questions & Answers

How do I make a booking

Preferably via our "Instant Fare Quote" booking engine, or through Online telephone.

How do I find my driver from an airport, port or station

The pick up instructions will be contained in the "Journey Details" email.

What is the 'Meet and Greet' service

The "Meet and Greet" service is where the driver will park their vehicle and meet you with a name board in the appropriate place (e.g. an Arrivals Hall at an Airport).

This service is not included on our journeys as standard but can be added for an additional fee, to cover parking charges.

The driver will put exactly what you entered in the "Head Passenger Full Name" field onto the name board, therefore if you'd rather the driver doesn't know the passenger's name then use a pseudonym instead. Obviously you will need to make sure the passenger is aware so they know what to look out for!

Will I incur any extra charges if my plane is delayed

No, we will track your plane's progress when it is in the air.

Is your Company licensed and fully insured

Yes, we are fully licensed. All our vehicles are also insured.

What do I do if I don't know the postcode

Enter all the details you do have and we will try and find the postcode and email you back a quotation as soon as possible.

What happens if I haven't received confirmation and my transfer is imminent

This could be due to a number of reasons, most commonly a misspelt email address.

If this happens to you please contact our office via Online or call on 07557026312 and we will deal with your booking as quickly as possible.
