Addresses outside the borders of the resort selected will not be serviced. Please be advised that the booking system may automatically confirm the address, as it does not detect incorrect address details or addresses that are outside the borders of the resort. Once this mistake is detected, the booking will be cancelled if the address is not within the resort. Consequently, booking will be subject to an extra charge.

or supplies an incorrect address, the driver will attempt to locate
the accommodation for a period not exceeding 5 minutes for shared
transfers and 20 minutes for private transfers, after this time the

5. Carriage of children and minors
5.1 Both local and national laws regarding the use
of child seats for infants and children vary from country to
country. The company will follow local legislation.
*The EU
directive 2003/20/EC indicates that children must use an appropriate
child seat until they reach 12 years of age or until they reach a
height of 135 cm. Car seats or child restraint systems are not
compulsory in coaches given article R412-2 paragraph III-3° of the
Highway Code.
5.2 The safety of our little passengers is
especially important to us. Therefore, please note the
following:
● It is illegal for babies and children to travel in
the lap of an adult. The company can provide appropriate child
seats, as long as they are specified at the time of booking.
●
That all of our child seats are reversible, thus we strongly
recommend parents travelling with infants under 1 year to bring
their own. The company will provide baby seats based on the request
on the reservation, and standard issue baby seats
will be
provided. Any client who requires non-standard equipment is advised
to supply their own equipment.
● Children up to 3 years of age,
must be seated in a suitable child seat that can be secured with a
2-point seat belt. Note: If the client hasn’t booked a baby seat
with the company, parents must bring their own child car seat with a
seat belt adapter.
Please understand that this is solely your
responsibility. Passengers with children who don't have the child
seat will be denied boarding.
● Children up to 10 years must
always be accompanied by an adult.
● Children between 10 and 15
years can travel alone with a declaration of consent from their
parent or guardian. Please understand that our bus drivers cannot
provide any supervision for children.
● From the age of 16,
children may travel alone without any restrictions. Please just make
sure that your child has all necessary documents and identification papers.
5.3 The correct size baby seat must be requested and the age/weight of the child must be advised. For your convenience a general guide has been provided:
○ Rear facing baby seat: group 0: up to 13kgs (29lbs) approx age
range: birth to 12 – 15mths

1/2/3: 9-25kgs (20-40lbs) approx age range: 9mths – 4 years
○
Booster cushion: group 3/4: from 22-36kgs (48-79lbs) approx age
range: 6 -11/12 years
5.4 An extra fee is applicable for the provision of baby seats by the company.
5.5 Failure to request an appropriate child seat at the time of booking will mean we are unable to provide the transfer. In this instance, we will not be able to provide any refund for any of the persons in the booking, or offer an alternative transfer.
5.6 Babies and children pay a full seat price. The seat will be allocated to the client on the basis of what they selected on the online booking form. In the case that there is any dispute over the suitability of the seat, the company will not be held accountable for difference of opinion. To save this occurrence, parents are recommended to bring their own child seats.
5.7 Parents are responsible for the correct fitting of child seat restraints in the vehicles.
5.8 Parents, or minders (or friends over 18 years) of children and adolescents under the age of 18 years, are responsible for the conduct of these minors while in the company vehicles, and will be held responsible for any damage caused by the aforementioned minors.

excess alcohol consumption, drugs or food and drink are liable to an
on the spot fine of €150.00. This fine is payable immediately to
thecompany driver. If the client refuses to pay, or has no money
with which to pay, then the
driver will file a police report.

6.6 The company does not allow pets to travel due
to consideration of other passengers on-board and for the protection
of our vehicles. It is possible to travel with pets in a private

relevant supporting documents and will need to notify the company in
advance of travel.
6.7 Clients must wear their seat belts at all times.
6.8 In case of force majeure, the company may be forced to explore other transport options for customers.

6.9 In the event that the company driver is unable
to reach a customer drop off point or pick up point due to bad
weather, road conditions, or the transfer vehicle being too large to
access certain properties, the customer must attempt to make their
own way to a suitable, safe, pickup location or may be required to
make the rest of the journey on foot or via other transport means.
The company is not liable for any additional costs incurred in this
instance.
The company recommends clients to check their
accommodation and resort information before travel and be aware of
any potential access issues.

of Geneva airport must make their own way to/from the Swiss side of
the airport. Clients arriving/departing via Terminal 2 (charter
flight) of Geneva airport must make their own way to/from the
arrival's hall in the main
terminal and meet our airport team
and driver at our desk.
6.11 The company reserves the right to modify the type of vehicle used for all transfers. Vehicles may vary in order to accommodate any number of passengers from 2 to 50. This may include coaches and larger mini buses, as well as smaller vehicles. If you have purchased PremiumPlus Tickets for private transfers, and we are unable to provide the Mercedes Brand due to operational reasons, you will be refunded the difference between your original purchase price and the cost of a regular private transfer.
