General Policy

Full payment is charged approximately 5 days (120 hours) before your scheduled service. Your reservation is confirmed only after payment is fully processed and a confirmation is issued.

50% Refund: Cancellations made between 120 and 48 hours before the scheduled service are eligible for a 50% refund. Approved refunds are processed within 7–10 business days.

No Refund: Cancellations made within 48 hours of the scheduled service are not eligible for any refund — for any reason, including illness, schedule changes, personal emergencies, airline delays, weather, or acts of third parties.

⚠️ Cancellations within 48 hours of the scheduled pickup are not eligible for any refund, regardless of the reason.

We recommend contacting us as early as possible if your travel plans change. Our team is available via WhatsApp 24/7 and by phone from 8 AM to 8 PM.

No-Show Policy

A no-show occurs when a customer fails to appear, fails to contact the driver, or is not present when the driver must depart. No-shows are charged the full fare with no refund.

🛡️

Trip Insurance

For maximum flexibility, we offer optional trip protection at the time of booking. With trip insurance, you can cancel or reschedule for any reason with far less notice than our standard policy requires.

Trip Protection — Cancel for Any Reason

Purchasing trip protection allows you to cancel or reschedule your trip at any time, for any reason, up to 1 hour before trip departure. You will be reimbursed for the full amount of each ticket, less the cost of trip protection and any applicable processing fee.

A 1-hour cancellation notice is required to qualify for the refund.

🚫 No refund issued after the 1-hour mark

Trip insurance is especially recommended for international travelers, families with young children, or anyone whose plans may be subject to last-minute changes.

✈️

Waiting Time Policy

For Orlando International Airport (MCO) pickups, our drivers track your actual flight arrival at the gate, not the scheduled time. Your driver will meet you inside the terminal at baggage claim or the designated meet & greet area. Curbside pickup is NOT provided during weather delays, lightning, ramp closures, or gate restrictions.

🛬 Domestic Arrivals

30 min
Free waiting time from actual gate arrival
After 30 min: $1.00/minute

🌍 International Arrivals

50 min
Free waiting time (includes U.S. Customs)
After 50 min: $1.00/minute
Port & Other Locations: Hourly rate of $75/hour. Domestic arrivals receive 40 minutes of free waiting; international arrivals receive 50 minutes. After that, billed in 15-minute increments.

Flight Delays & Early Arrivals: Vehicle availability cannot always be guaranteed. Drivers will pick up as soon as possible. Accurate flight information is required — failure to provide it may result in missed service with no refund.

Delays due to weather or technical issues will be managed based on schedule availability. If a customer chooses to cancel because they disagree with the alternative solution provided, a penalty fee of 80% will apply.

🕐

Grace Period

For pickups at hotels, resorts, cruise ports, or any non-airport location, passengers have a 15-minute grace period after the scheduled pickup time.

If extended waiting is available beyond the 15-minute window, it will be billed at $10 per 10 minutes. If extended waiting is unavailable, the driver will depart at the 15-minute mark.

If the passenger does not appear within 15 minutes and no contact has been made, the pickup will be considered a no-show with a 100% penalty fee (no refund).

If you are running late or need to adjust your pickup time, please contact us immediately via WhatsApp or phone so we can accommodate you based on driver availability.
