Booking advice and planning
Planning makes the difference between a smooth trip and last-minute stress. Follow a few simple guidelines to get the right vehicle and service for your group.
Choose the right size
Allow one seat per passenger and extra space for luggage. For airport transfers or sports teams, opt for a 15–16 seater if baggage is substantial.
Book early — or use our last-minute option
Busy weekends around events such as university graduations or summer festivals can book fast; aim to reserve early. If plans change, our wide UK network and 24/7 availability mean we can usually accommodate short-notice requests.
