(II) Transfer Rides / Hourly Bookings, Changes to Service

The User can choose between transfer rides and hourly bookings for their Ride Request. If according to the express wishes of the User, or guest, the actual Ride Request requires additional effort compared to the original Ride Request, the SERVICE OPERATOR should carry this out where possible. The extra effort may result in additional charges.

Changes in Travel Arrangements are subject to the availability of the Service operator and can be made by the User, or the guest, even after the conclusion of the contract.

In the case of transfer service (airport/point to point transfer) the price quoted is valid for a start and destination address. An additional fee, according to the current price structure, accrues per stopover on the direct route.

For hourly bookings, the trip must always end in the municipal area of the pickup location. An hourly booking always starts at the pickup time confirmed upon booking.

(III)  Vehicle Class / Vehicle Model, Upgrade

The User can choose from different vehicle classes;  

-Business Class Sedan
-Business Class SUV or VAN
-First Class Sedan
-Extra Large Van

The vehicle images shown in the online booking are only illustrative examples. These are not connected with any right to a particular vehicle model for the booked vehicle category - regional differences are especially possible.

Subject to availability, an upgrade from the vehicle class "Business Class" to a higher vehicle class (such as " Business Class SUV or VAN "), at no additional cost to the User, may be possible.

 

(IV)  Transport Safety, Consequences

Luggage and Animals

The price given in the Booking Confirmation includes the number of pieces of luggage specified on the booking form. Excess luggage, bulky luggage, or the transportation of animals not stated as an additional comment upon booking could lead to corresponding surcharges; the arrangement fee will also be higher, as stated in the Booking Confirmation (see Paragraph 5 below).

The Service operator reserves the right to refuse the carriage of luggage and/or animals that were not agreed to. This also applies to animals that are not contained in a closed and suitable transport box.

Carriage of Children

The need for safety seats for children should be requested by the User as an additional comment by specifying the number and age of children to be transported as well as the required type of seating.

Passengers and Pieces of Luggage

The maximum number of guests and pieces of luggage specified for a particular vehicle is an estimate based on factors such as size and weight of guests and luggage. These are therefore not binding. The SERVICE OPERATOR can refuse the carriage of guests or luggage if they believe they compromise the space and safety conditions.

Prevention of Carriage

The SERVICE OPERATOR reserves the right to refuse carriage if compelling (for example under applicable laws) requirements under Paragraph (IV) were not at all, or not correctly, communicated by the User as an additional comment.

If due to this, the carriage is not possible, this has no influence on the payment of 5 STARS Limousine Connection through the arrangement agreement with the User for the transportation booked.

(V) Delays

Exceptional situations such as air-traffic controller strikes, extreme weather conditions, etc. can be compensated only to a limited extent, meaning that longer waiting periods or last-minute cancellations must be accepted by Users.

(VI) Cancellations, Changes to Booking, and No-Shows

Cancellations

(a) Transfer Services

For transfer services, cancellation is free of charge if there is more than twenty-four (24hrs) hours left before the agreed pickup time. If there is less than twenty-four (24hrs) before the agreed pickup time, the total price must be paid. A cancellation can only be done by using the cancel feature on our website or by sending an email to cancelleation@5starslimo.com or just a reply to the confirmation email you received at the time of booking.

(b) Hourly Bookings

For hourly bookings, cancellation is free of charge if there are more than seventy-two (72) hours left before the agreed pickup time. If there are seventy-two (72) hours or less before the agreed pickup time, the total price must be paid. A cancellation can only be done by using the cancel feature on our website or by sending an email to cancelleation@5starslimo.com or just a reply to the confirmation email you received at the time of booking.

Changes to Booking

Changes to bookings are generally treated as new bookings. The policy for dealing with cancellations (see Paragraph (VI): (a) and (b) above) therefore apply to the ride originally agreed upon. Compensation claims by 5 STARS Limousine Connection for the originally agreed ride may be made accordingly.

No-Shows without cancellation, Delay to the User

In case of a no-show without cancellation, the User loses their entitlement to carriage over the SERVICE OPERATOR, however, this does not affect the compensation claim of 5 STARS Limousine Connection towards the User.

(a) Transfer Services

A ride is considered a no-show if the User, or guest, has not shown up without cancellation within 30 minutes after the agreed pickup time at the agreed pickup location. If a customer does not show up, the ride must be paid for in full, whereas possible surcharges for waiting time do not apply.

For airport or train station (only long-distance train stations) pickups the ride is considered a no-show when the User, or passenger, has not shown up without cancellation within 60 minutes after the agreed pickup time at the agreed pickup location, at which flight and train delays or earlier flights and trains lead to a deferral of the scheduled pickup time by the planned period of time between the planned arrival time and the original pickup time. If a customer does not show up, the ride must be paid for in full, whereas possible surcharges for waiting time do not apply.

From this rule, situations are excluded in which the SERVICE OPERATOR and the guest have agreed on a later pickup time by phone. Generally, the passenger is not entitled to change the pickup time.

(b) Hourly Bookings

A ride is considered a no-show if the User, or passenger, has not shown up without cancellation after the expiration of the hours booked after the agreed pickup time at the agreed pickup location. If a customer does not show up, the ride must be paid for in full.

For airport or train station (only long-distance train stations) pickups the ride is considered a no-show when the User, or passenger, has not shown up without cancellation after the expiration of the hours booked after the agreed pickup time at the agreed pickup location, at which flight and train delays or earlier flights and trains lead to a deferral of the scheduled pickup time by the planned period of time between the planned arrival time and the original pickup time. If a customer does not show up, the ride must be paid for in full.

From this rule, situations are excluded in which the SERVICE OPERATOR and the guest have agreed on a later pickup time by phone. An hourly booking always starts at the pickup time confirmed upon booking. Generally, the passenger is not entitled to change the pickup time.

Behavior in the Vehicle

The following behavioral standards apply to the User when traveling with the SERVICE OPERATOR:

During the entirety of the ride, all guests must follow the regulations which apply to the relevant Road Traffic Act, especially the seatbelt regulations. Any instructions given by the SERVICE OPERATOR must be followed. It is the responsibility of the SERVICE OPERATOR to ensure a safe ride. It is therefore prohibited for guests to open the doors while driving, throw any objects from the vehicle, and/or stick body parts out of or shout from the vehicle. If the User wishes to use any of the devices or facilities in the vehicle, a brief instruction is required from the SERVICE OPERATOR.

Smoking is prohibited in the guest part of the vehicle. If the User, or guest, ignores this, they are liable to pay not only the cost for the cleaning of the vehicle but also compensate for the loss of business due to the downtime of the vehicle.
