Services:

Your reservation is a contract between you and the Transporter. The task of Elite Transfer is to facilitate the conclusion of this contract. Elite Transfer does not accept any responsibility for any mistakes made by the Transporter.

Elite Transfer operates as a means of fulfilling reservation services of transfer in the name of the transporter. In order to book a reservation for your transfer you will need to follow the relevant reservation process on our website. Reservations must be made at least 24 hours before the scheduled transfer.

Elite Transfer reserves the right to refuse any transfer request. In this case, you will receive an e-mail to be notified of this event, while you will be refunded the full amount (in euros) or you may be offered an alternative service. All the approved reservations are confirmed by sending the booking form to the e-mail address you gave to us during the booking procedure. When you receive the booking form, it is your responsibility to make sure that the information that appear are correct. Details about the Transporter will only be given if your booking has been successful. All transfer services offered on our site have been approved by the Transporter.

Reservation and service process:

During the booking process it is important to check that the information you provide are correct. If any information is incorrect, you should contact us immediately, as this information is provided to the Transporter in order to confirm the transfer service. The Transporter will use this information for your boarding and transportation as close to your destination as possible, considering the characteristics of the vehicle and the natural access conditions to the requested destination.

If due to special circumstances (for example infrastructure projects, traffic conditions, etc.) your direct boarding on / getting off the vehicle is not possible, the Transporter will stop at the nearest possible boarding on / getting off point. Also, if the shortest and most convenient route is closed due to an accident, weather conditions, etc., and after customer’s request, the Transporter has to follow a different, longer route to reach his destination, additional costs are likely to arise.

Immediately after the successful payment, you will receive a receipt and confirmation of payment via e-mail. The receipt of the payment is not a confirmation of your booking but serves to confirm that your request is under elaboration by the Transporter. Once the Transporter accepts your request, you will receive an email with your reservation as a booking form. This will be the official contract between you and the Transporter. You must present this form to the driver at the beginning of your trip. The Transporter may refuse the transfer if your booking form does not appear. Once your transfer is complete, you will receive a service receipt attached to an e-mail within 24 hours.

Cost and payment methods:

Prices for the transfer services as well as payment procedures are displayed on our website. The current price of each service is the price that appears on our website at the date and time of your reservation. Once your booking is confirmed, you waive your right to pay the fare listed on the taximeter during your transfer.

In the event that an error has occurred and the cost of the service is higher than stated in your reservation, you will be notified so that either your reservation will be canceled (refunded) or will be adjusted so that the price will be correct.

There are three options for payment. You can pay by credit or debit card, via PayPal or cash at the time of your booking or upon arrival. The cards we accept are defined in the booking form on our website. Our card issuers may charge some shipping costs that you have to undertake when you make your payment. All prices listed are per vehicle and not per person.

Modifications to your reservation- General information:

If you wish to make any changes to your reservation, you must notify us at the following email address: info@elitetransfer.gr. The change in your reservation will be confirmed if you receive a reply message to the email address you provided. The change must be sent at least 24 hours before your transfer.

In case the change in the reservation leads to a higher price (different destination, vehicle size, etc.), you will be notified by message about the additional costs, as well as about the method of payment of the additional amount. If modifying your reservation reduces the total amount, the difference will be refunded.

Up to two modifications per reservation are allowed free of charge. Additional modifications are subject to management costs of 10 euros, which must be paid at least 24 hours before your scheduled transfer. If you change your reservation less than 24 hours before your transfer, we do not guarantee that the change will be approved by the Transporter. Once approved, you will be charged an additional 10 euros, which must be paid before your scheduled transfer.

When your plane lands, the Transporter is obliged to wait up to 50 minutes at the meeting point indicated on your booking form. If you think you will be more than 50 minutes late, you should inform the Transporter. In this case, there may be additional charges. Finally, in case 50 minutes pass and none of your team has appeared, the Transporter will try to contact you through the phone number you gave during the booking process. If he still cannot contact you, your transfer will be canceled, and your money will not be refunded.

In case the meeting point is not the airport, the Transporter is obliged to wait for you for 20 minutes.
