However, there is an exemption for licensed taxis. If no child seat is available, children of three years of age and over may travel as long as they wear an adult seat belt. Children under three years of age may be transported without a safety restraint as long as they travel in the rear of the vehicle.

5. Child Pricing 

5.1 Taxis and private transfers (other than private coach transfers): All children and infants count towards the occupancy of the vehicle, regardless of age, and thus should be included in the total number of passengers at the time of booking. If you require a child seat for a child, we strongly recommend that you bring your own due to the variation in quality and availability across destinations. In some areas, we can request local child seats on your behalf. If a child seat is provided by the transport company a charge will apply. 

5.2 Infants go free statement: Infants count towards the occupancy of the vehicle and in most cases will not occur a cost. In selected destinations, a cost may apply because the infant is required to travel by law in a child seat.

If you or any member of your party has any medical problem or disability which may affect your transfer, please provide us with full details before you confirm your booking so that we may advise as to the suitability of your chosen arrangements if possible. 

Please inform us at the time of booking if any of the passengers are wheelchair users. Please also inform us if the wheelchair is collapsible, so that we may ensure that the correct vehicle is booked to meet with requirements.

10. Baggage allowance and declaration 

All baggage must be clearly labeled with the owner’s name and the destination address. Each passenger named on the written confirmation is entitled to have carried with him on the relevant transfers up to two items of baggage, i.e. one suitcase which should not exceed 90cm x 75cm and one piece of hand luggage 56cm x 45cm. Carriage of any baggage exceeding these measurements will be subject to available baggage hold space and may be declined. If a passenger requires carriage of baggage in excess of this allowance (e.g. suitcases exceeding the maximum permitted size, skis, golf clubs, bicycles, snowboards, wheelchairs/scooters, etc) we must be informed at the time of booking. The supplier may make a charge for excess baggage or refuse carriage of the excess items. Please contact our Administration Team to check if this is available for your routing. 

11. Conditions of carriage 

11.1 The nominated supplier, its drivers and appointed agents, including Romeairporttransport.com, reserve the right to refuse to carry any person who is, or appears to be under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs and/or whose behavior is considered to pose a threat to the driver, the vehicle or the other passengers. No refunds will be made in those circumstances.

11.2 Passengers are not allowed to consume alcohol on any of the supplier's vehicles. Smoking is not permitted unless express permission has been given by the driver. All vehicles provided by the suppliers are fully insured for passenger and third party claims, as required by the local law. Passenger’s baggage is, however, carried entirely at their own risk and no responsibility can be accepted for loss or damage by Romeairporttransport.com. Romeairporttransport.com will not accept responsibility for any costs incurred or the making of any arrangements in returning the items to passengers. 

11.3 Whilst we endeavor to provide SMS messaging and availability of reconfirmation information on the internet, these services cannot be guaranteed. It is your responsibility to utilize all options available to confirm your resort pick up time. These options are located on your voucher. If you fail to reconfirm the departure service this may not be supplied. If you have moved the hotel whilst in resort to another hotel within the same resort your return pick up must be confirmed with the supplier over the telephone only.

11.4 Whilst all reasonable efforts will be made by the supplier, there is no guarantee that the vehicle will arrive on time in order to begin the period of hire nor that it will reach its destination on time. Romeairporttransport.com will not incur any liability in the event of such a delay. It is your responsibility to ensure that you get to the airport on time for your flight check-in. Romeairporttransport.com cannot be held liable for the transfer service (as stipulated in clause 1.2 of these Booking Conditions) and will not be held liable for any costs if you miss your flight. Should your transfer not arrive and you have followed the procedure stipulated on the voucher by calling the transfer provider you should ensure that you seek an alternative method to get to the airport in order to mitigate your losses. When paying for alternative transport to the airport please ensure that you obtain a receipt and then submit this to our Customer Services Department on your return home for investigation with the supplier. There is no guarantee that this will be refunded however if the transfer provider is found to be in error upon investigation you will be refunded the cost of the taxi. Further to this, we cannot refund any costs without provision of a receipt

11.5 If your arrival flight is diverted, delayed or canceled we recommend that you contact the supplier via the telephone numbers provided on your transfer voucher. Whilst every effort will be made to accommodate changes of this nature this may not always be possible and will be dependent on operational demands on the supplier. It may not always be liable for the driver to wait and you may have to make alternative travel plans at your own cost locally. If the Supplier is able to accommodate the new arrival time an additional charge may be applied. Romeairporttransport.com accepts no liability for additional costs resulting from late flight arrivals.

11.6 Carriage by shared and/or speedy shuttle transfer will only be to and from destinations which are Tourist Board registered properties unless specifically agreed in advance. Clients having pre-booked private transfers are required to supply full address details at the time of booking. As agents for the nominated supplier, Romeairportshuttle.com Limited accepts no liability for the failure of the nominated supplier to perform the booking or for any other incident in connection with the booking.

11.7 In some destinations it may not be possible for your transfer/shuttle to pick up and drop off at your hotel door and you may be dropped or picked up at a central point within reasonable walking distance from your hotel/apartment.

11.7.1 Due to specific restrictions such as infrastructure work, traffic conditions, etc... the door to door pick up and drops off may sometimes be prevented. Where these restrictions occur, the vehicle will stop and collect passengers from the nearest accessible point to the accommodation.

11.7.2 Transfer times displayed on our website are estimated and can depend on traffic and the number of stops en-route. 

When booking a shared shuttle/speedy shuttle service the journey time could be longer during peak times of travel. Also, certain areas, traffic conditions and the seasonal increase in your destinations peak season can add to the estimated journey time. Our supplier’s experienced drivers will do their very best to get you to your destination in a timely fashion. 

Collection for a shared shuttle to the airport may be some hours prior to your flight check-in time and can vary due to traffic conditions and the seasonal increase in your destinations peak season 

11.7.3 As a matter of transfer time for the speedy shuttle service our sole commitment is that the shuttle is limited to a maximum 4 drop-offs (not including your own) and is thus fairly reasonably reckoned to have a shorter journey time and less drop-off and pick up stops than the average shuttle journey. We cannot be held responsible if, for some reason, dependent on the supplier, a non-speedy shuttle journey has less than 4 stops.

11.7.4 Speedy shuttle passengers may have to travel in the same vehicle with other shared transfer passengers.

11.7.5 The speedy shuttle waiting time at the airport once the customer has made contact with the Supplier meet and greet representative will be equal to that of a standard shared shuttle transfer or shorter in some destinations. 

11.7.6 Private and speedy shuttle transfers may be operated in any shape or size vehicle: it can be a taxi, van, minibus or coach.

11.8 Romeairportshuttle.com will accept no liability for any difficulty or service failure if clients are not in possession of the appropriate transfer documentation outlining our arrival and departure procedures at their time of travel.

11.9 The following are examples of circumstances which are not within our reasonable control (“Force Majeure Event”): 

•          accidents causing delays to the vehicle 

•          exceptional or severe weather conditions

•          compliance with requests of the police

•          deaths and accidents on the road

•          vandalism and terrorism

•          unforeseen traffic delays

•          industrial action by third parties

•          problems caused by other customers

•          other circumstances affecting passenger safety

•          road closures due to local fiestas or other events

•          properties that are not accessible to type of service booked

11.10 Romeairporttransport.com shall not be in breach of these administrative terms and conditions, nor liable for any failure or delay in the performance of any of our obligations under these administrative terms and conditions arising from a Force Majeure Event.

11.11 In very rare cases the nominated local supplier may drop or collect passengers from a different point other than the accommodation address if the carriage to the exactly specified accommodation may cause unreasonable delay or inconvenience for other passengers.

11.12 Private transfers are from the booked pickup point to the final drop off point only. In case extra stops are required ( e.g. to collect the key of an apartment to a third party location ) a local extra charge payable directly to the driver or supplier representative may apply. The agreement and payment of those extra charges are between your party and the supplier or its representative.

Romeairportshuttle.com cannot be held responsible for those extra charges unless your party have asked Romeairporttransport.com to organize an extra stop for which Romeairporttransport.com will be quoting and invoicing your party for prior to the transfer being provided, in which case a full payment prior to traveling will be due to Romeairportshuttle.com to consider those arrangements as being booked and contractually valid. Please note: credit/debit card charges apply.

12. Our responsibility

12.1 We have a duty to select suppliers of transfer services using reasonable skill and care.

12.2 We, and each of our group companies, officers and employees exclude all liability and responsibility for any amount or kind of loss or damage that you may incur (including any direct, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damages, or any loss of income, profits, goodwill, data, contracts, or loss or damages arising from or connected in any way to business interruption, loss of opportunity, loss of anticipated savings, wasted management or office time and whether in tort (including negligence), contract or otherwise, even if foreseeable) in connection with your booking; the transfer services; and/or your use of the Website.

An alternative may be offered which may include additional charges.

13. Complaints

10. Baggage allowance and declaration 

All baggage must be clearly labeled with the owner’s name and the destination address. Each passenger named on the written confirmation is entitled to have carried with him on the relevant transfers up to two items of baggage, i.e. one suitcase which should not exceed 90cm x 75cm and one piece of hand luggage 56cm x 45cm. Carriage of any baggage exceeding these measurements will be subject to available baggage hold space and may be declined. If a passenger requires carriage of baggage in excess of this allowance (e.g. suitcases exceeding the maximum permitted size, skis, golf clubs, bicycles, snowboards, wheelchairs/scooters, etc) we must be informed at the time of booking. The supplier may make a charge for excess baggage or refuse carriage of the excess items. Please contact our Administration Team to check if this is available for your routing. 

11. Conditions of carriage 

11.1 The nominated supplier, its drivers and appointed agents, including Romeairportshuttle.com, reserve the right to refuse to carry any person who is, or appears to be under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs and/or whose behavior is considered to pose a threat to the driver, the vehicle or the other passengers. No refunds will be made in those circumstances.

11.2 Passengers are not allowed to consume alcohol on any of the supplier's vehicles. Smoking is not permitted unless express permission has been given by the driver. All vehicles provided by the suppliers are fully insured for passenger and third party claims, as required by the local law. Passenger’s baggage is, however, carried entirely at their own risk and no responsibility can be accepted for loss or damage by Romeairportshuttle.com. Romeairportshuttle.com will not accept responsibility for any costs incurred or the making of any arrangements in returning the items to passengers. 

11.3 Whilst we endeavor to provide SMS messaging and availability of reconfirmation information on the internet, these services cannot be guaranteed. It is your responsibility to utilize all options available to confirm your resort pick up time. These options are located on your voucher. If you fail to reconfirm the departure service this may not be supplied. If you have moved the hotel whilst in resort to another hotel within the same resort your return pick up must be confirmed with the supplier over the telephone only.

11.4 Whilst all reasonable efforts will be made by the supplier, there is no guarantee that the vehicle will arrive on time in order to begin the period of hire nor that it will reach its destination on time. Romeairportshuttle.com will not incur any liability in the event of such a delay. It is your responsibility to ensure that you get to the airport on time for your flight check-in. Romeairportshuttle.com cannot be held liable for the transfer service (as stipulated in clause 1.2 of these Booking Conditions) and will not be held liable for any costs if you miss your flight. Should your transfer not arrive and you have followed the procedure stipulated on the voucher by calling the transfer provider you should ensure that you seek an alternative method to get to the airport in order to mitigate your losses. When paying for alternative transport to the airport please ensure that you obtain a receipt and then submit this to our Customer Services Department on your return home for investigation with the supplier. There is no guarantee that this will be refunded however if the transfer provider is found to be in error upon investigation you will be refunded the cost of the taxi. Further to this, we cannot refund any costs without provision of a receipt

11.5 If your arrival flight is diverted, delayed or canceled we recommend that you contact the supplier via the telephone numbers provided on your transfer voucher. Whilst every effort will be made to accommodate changes of this nature this may not always be possible and will be dependent on operational demands on the supplier. It may not always be liable for the driver to wait and you may have to make alternative travel plans at your own cost locally. If the Supplier is able to accommodate the new arrival time an additional charge may be applied. Romeairportshuttle.com accepts no liability for additional costs resulting from late flight arrivals.

11.6 Carriage by shared and/or speedy shuttle transfer will only be to and from destinations which are Tourist Board registered properties unless specifically agreed in advance. Clients having pre-booked private transfers are required to supply full address details at the time of booking. As agents for the nominated supplier, Romeairportshuttle.com Limited accepts no liability for the failure of the nominated supplier to perform the booking or for any other incident in connection with the booking.

11.7 In some destinations it may not be possible for your transfer/shuttle to pick up and drop off at your hotel door and you may be dropped or picked up at a central point within reasonable walking distance from your hotel/apartment.

11.7.1 Due to specific restrictions such as infrastructure work, traffic conditions, etc... the door to door pick up and drops off may sometimes be prevented. Where these restrictions occur, the vehicle will stop and collect passengers from the nearest accessible point to the accommodation.

11.7.2 Transfer times displayed on our website are estimated and can depend on traffic and the number of stops en-route. 

When booking a shared shuttle/speedy shuttle service the journey time could be longer during peak times of travel. Also, certain areas, traffic conditions and the seasonal increase in your destinations peak season can add to the estimated journey time. Our supplier’s experienced drivers will do their very best to get you to your destination in a timely fashion. 

Collection for a shared shuttle to the airport may be some hours prior to your flight check-in time and can vary due to traffic conditions and the seasonal increase in your destinations peak season 

11.7.3 As a matter of transfer time for the speedy shuttle service our sole commitment is that the shuttle is limited to a maximum 4 drop-offs (not including your own) and is thus fairly reasonably reckoned to have a shorter journey time and less drop-off and pick up stops than the average shuttle journey. We cannot be held responsible if, for some reason, dependent on the supplier, a non-speedy shuttle journey has less than 4 stops.

11.7.4 Speedy shuttle passengers may have to travel in the same vehicle with other shared transfer passengers.

11.7.5 The speedy shuttle waiting time at the airport once the customer has made contact with the Supplier meet and greet representative will be equal to that of a standard shared shuttle transfer or shorter in some destinations. 

11.7.6 Private and speedy shuttle transfers may be operated in any shape or size vehicle: it can be a taxi, van, minibus or coach.

11.8 Romeairportshuttle.com will accept no liability for any difficulty or service failure if clients are not in possession of the appropriate transfer documentation outlining our arrival and departure procedures at their time of travel.

11.9 The following are examples of circumstances which are not within our reasonable control (“Force Majeure Event”): 

•          accidents causing delays to the vehicle 

•          exceptional or severe weather conditions

•          compliance with requests of the police

•          deaths and accidents on the road

•          vandalism and terrorism

•          unforeseen traffic delays

•          industrial action by third parties

•          problems caused by other customers

•          other circumstances affecting passenger safety

•          road closures due to local fiestas or other events

11.10 Romeairportshuttle.com shall not be in breach of these administrative terms and conditions, nor liable for any failure or delay in the performance of any of our obligations under these administrative terms and conditions arising from a Force Majeure Event.

11.11 In very rare cases the nominated local supplier may drop or collect passengers from a different point other than the accommodation address if the carriage to the exactly specified accommodation may cause unreasonable delay or inconvenience for other passengers.

11.12 Private transfers are from the booked pickup point to the final drop off point only. In case extra stops are required ( e.g. to collect the key of an apartment to a third party location ) a local extra charge payable directly to the driver or supplier representative may apply. The agreement and payment of those extra charges are between your party and the supplier or its representative.

Romeairportshuttle.com cannot be held responsible for those extra charges unless your party have asked Romeairportshuttle.com to organize an extra stop for which Romeairportshuttle.com will be quoting and invoicing your party for prior to the transfer being provided, in which case a full payment prior to traveling will be due to Romeairportshuttle.com to consider those arrangements as being booked and contractually valid. Please note: credit/debit card charges apply.

12. Our responsibility

An alternative may be offered which may include additional charges.

13. Complaints
