(#make sure all transfers are correctly booked)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But on the departure day, you are waiting at the hotel for 7 minutes and your driver still isn\u2019t present or is going to come to pick you up late.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">Below is the step to take action! <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>contact your customer representative<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">First of all, please contact your local representative. You will have a local representative only if you booked the vacation with particular agencies. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Actually, people who booked your transfer in advance, have booked their vacation via an agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">So, you have to check first if your agency does provide a local customer representative person. If yes, please contact him first, as he will check, where your driver is at the moment.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>They will check first if you also booked the transfer with them <\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">Before the representative is going to check where the driver is at the moment, he will check first if you have booked that transfer with him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In this process, on the phone call with him, you need to say your booking number or at least your last name and the hotel name you are staying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">This process is important. There are some clients, who have not booked the transfer with the travel agency as all-inclusive travel (hotel + transfer) but they think they are. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">They might have booked a transfer with another agency (B) and think it is the same agency (A) they booked the hotel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But they called agency (A) for a transfer issue. In this case agency A does not have information about this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">After it is checked and you have transferred with him, the next step is to check where the driver now is and how long will he come to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>The next step is, how long should you still wait for it ?<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">It can happen very often that the driver comes late. Normally 5 &#8211; 15 minutes. It is depending on the traffic on the street. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">No worry it is still in time to get the flight because the pick-up time was set with spare time in case of traffic jam.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">Now if 15 minutes have passed and no one is still present there?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">The next question is, should you still wait? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">This will refer to your flight departure time or does the flight time still match? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Normally, the pick-up time was planned with ca. 40 minutes of spare time. If it exceeds 40 minutes already then tell your representative that you need to take another taxi now.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>But if it is still in time and you take a taxi, it is your own responsibility.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Yes, if it is not 40 minutes yet and you take the taxi on your own, it will be the case of a transfer no-show or in other words, you missed the transfer. The agency will not take any responsibility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">The spare time is depending on the individual agency. I used 40 minutes just for an example. So, let\u2019s check with your agency what is the policy with spare time. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>If it exceeds 40 minutes? <\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\" data-tt=\"{&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">I would say let\u2019s go ahead with another. Take it and claim later. Of course, the agency knows <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">that the extra cost of a taxi is much cheaper than a new flight they have to pay for the customer if their clients miss the flight: How to claim for transfer # <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/farparents.com\/?p=6007\" data-tt=\"{&quot;link&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/farparents.com\/?p=6007&quot;,&quot;paragraphStyle&quot;:{&quot;alignment&quot;:4,&quot;writingDirection&quot;:1}}\">https:\/\/farparents.com\/?p=6007<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I hope this article will reduce the nerve of waiting for your transfer.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6129,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[216],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6128","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-issue-with-transfers"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.14 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What if your booked transfer does not present to pick you up at the hotel at appointment time or comes very late?
