Airport journeys have more moving parts than most trips. Flights change, luggage adds up and a large group can easily split up in a busy terminal. This checklist covers the details worth sharing before you book.

Before you request a quote

  1. The airport, terminal and flight number for each leg
  2. Scheduled arrival or departure times
  3. The number of passengers, including children
  4. Every suitcase, cabin bag and oversized item
  5. The full pickup or drop-off address

On the day of travel

Agree a clear meeting point with your group in advance, and keep the booking confirmation and contact number handy. If your flight is delayed, let the booking team know as soon as you can.

Keep one person responsible for communicating with the driver. It avoids crossed messages when plans change.

Returning home

For return journeys, allow generous time for check-in and security. Large groups often take longer than expected to gather, load luggage and set off.
