You are free of course to arrange to get to the airport for a time of less than 2 hours prior to flight departure, however Taxi Calculator accepts no responsibility for any missed flight due to this.
All passengers are advised to have adequate travel insurance prior to booking.
No responsibilities for costs are to be refunded to any passengers who do not wait for their driver and take alternative transport.
Taxi Calculator does not accept any responsibility in any way if the passenger/luggage requirements exceed the capacity of the vehicle booked. If you are unsure about the capacity of the vehicle booked please contact Taxi Calculator customer services team immediately.
For passenger safety Taxi Licensing regulations require all luggage to be securely fastened in the boot of the vehicle, please ensure to take this into account when choosing a vehicle.
Taxi Calculator reserves the right to refuse carriage of animals which were not agreed at the point of booking. All animals must be secured in a suitable transport box/crate. Taxi Calculator accepts no responsibility for costs incurred from a failure to abide by these terms.
The exact route of your journey is down to the driver’s discretion on the day of travel, alternate routes may be requested and will be assessed by the driver on a case by case basis.
Please ensure you give us your arrival times and day in to the UK and not your departing information.
If your flight has any serious delays please inform us as soon as possible.

Reservations made for service on the following timings and dates will be subject to an additional 50% surcharge on published prices: 18:00 24th December to 23:59 26th December, 18:00 31st December to 23:59 1st January, other days may also be affected.
All card payments are processed securely by Opayo / Elavon (formerly Sage Pay). Taxi Calculator does not process or retain card details, except for selected metadata returned to us by Sage Pay (card type, expiry date, etc). This service uses the latest 3DSv2 security checks for strong customer authentication.
During the payment process, you may be offered the opportunity to ‘save’ your card for easier future use. This optional facility is offered by Opayo / Elavon, who will retain your card details securely on behalf of Taxi Calculator; typically until the card expires. Taxi Calculator may instruct Opayo / Elavon to delete these saved details prior to the card expiry if your account with us is deemed to be inactive. Note that you will still need to provide some security details when using a saved card. You may delete saved cards at any time from your online account area, or by contacting us.
Customer-initiated transactions (CIT) performed on our public website are initialised with the ability to be ‘repeated’, subject to relevant security checks. This could be for a different amount to the original payment. For example, if you were to request a ‘Meet & Greet’ service be added to your journey after your booking is placed, with your permission we may acquire the additional fee for this service from the original payment method without needing to re-take card details. You will always have the opportunity to choose an alternate payment option. Full or partial refunds can also be applied to the original payment method to cover fare reductions or cancellations; however please note that fees may apply for cancellations, depending on the circumstances (see ‘Cancellations’ in our ‘Policies’ section).
All passengers are responsible for any cost incurred to return a vehicle to working order (repairs or professional cleans) where the damage to the vehicle by passengers exceeds reasonable wear and tear.

Waiting Time
For airport pickups, Taxi Calculator allows all passengers a maximum of 1 hour from the time their flight lands to meet with their driver. After this period, waiting time is charged at £20 per hour, pro rata, regardless of the reason.
Taxi Calculator will honor requests for a "deferred" collection time, such as [X] minutes after the flight landing. However, passengers requesting this are not entitled to any additional waiting time beyond the requested period. No compensation will be offered if the passenger(s) are ready earlier than planned and have to wait until the scheduled collection time for the driver to arrive.
Taxi Calculator will assume you wish for a 'standard' collection unless informed otherwise in writing before the journey by email to [email protected].
Waiting time for all other journeys will be charged at £20 per hour, pro rata, either from the scheduled collection time or for any stop en route.
Tolls
All tolls are included in the instant online quotes.
Amendments
Any amendments must be made via email or telephone to us, and you will receive an email confirming the amendment. Amendments must not be made with your driver.
Re-Booking
All bookings must be made through the office either via the website, telephone, or email. This ensures confirmations are sent out and the journey is insured.
Cancellations
Taxi Calculator will accept any cancellation as long as 24 hours' notice is provided. There will be a £7 or 10% (whichever is higher) administration/transaction charge per journey. All cancellations must be made via email, to which you will receive confirmation from us.
If you do not receive an email from Taxi Calculator confirming the cancellation, then we have not received it. In this case, please call our out-of-hours number, which is 01934 744171.
Refunds will not be issued in the following circumstances:
- No refund is made if the passenger does not show up for pre-paid journeys.
