PUBLISHED 25 SEPTEMBER 2026 / TRAVEL GUIDE

Airline information, terminal layouts and traffic can change. Your confirmed booking instructions always take priority. These are the details to include before the chauffeur is assigned.

01

1. Give the exact flight

Send the arrival date and flight number as it appears on the itinerary, plus the correct airport. If the airline shows a terminal, include it. A flight can be moved, so update the reservations team if the information changes.

  • Arrival date
  • Flight number
  • Airport and terminal
02

2. Name the traveller contact

An assistant or family member often books on another person’s behalf. The chauffeur still needs a way to reach the passenger after landing. Share the passenger’s mobile number and explain who should receive the fare details.

03

3. Count every bag

A vehicle can have sufficient seats yet too little luggage space. Count checked suitcases, cabin bags, pushchairs and large equipment. If passengers arrive separately, specify which bags and people belong in each car.

04

4. Read the meeting instructions

The confirmed booking identifies where to meet after baggage claim. Keep the team contact accessible and tell them if the arrival terminal changes. Do not rely on a general online pickup guide for your particular flight.

05

5. Include the full onward route

Give the destination postcode and entrance, plus any hotel, office or second airport stop. If you need the chauffeur for several hours, ask for a quote that covers the entire itinerary.
