We recommend to our clients to reserve a car ahead of time (at no additional charge) to be assured a car at time of pickup.

Pickup times you enter are only a GUIDE, we will do our best to make sure that the times are met but Kingstar Chauffeured Cars or any of its subcontractors or affiliated entities are not liable for any expenses or liability incurred due to a driver being late / having an accident or not showing.

Kingstar Chauffeured Cars will honour any reservation made online no less than 12 hours before the pickup time so long as all of our terms and conditions are met, including, but not limited to, providing us with correct booking details and valid credit card details at the time of booking. All reservations confirmed by us via email reply are guaranteed pickup so long as the details provided at the time of booking are correct and we receive credit card details to secure the booking. We can not guarantee you availability when you call or place a booking online with a short time notice or without confirmation from us.

Kingstar Chauffeured Cars or any of its subcontractors or affiliated entities are not liable for any costs incurred if the transfer does not take place for any reason. Kingstar Chauffeured Cars will review the cancellation of a job and will not charge the transfer if it is decided that the cancellation made by a client is for a valid reason.

Kingstar Chauffeured Cars reserves the right to decline your online booking request if drivers are unavailable or we cannot service the booking for any reason. We outsource our work and we will refuse jobs which we are unable to service. We will give you at least 12 hours notice if a confirmed booking cannot be serviced. Turn aways will be notified upon confirmation of receipt of your booking request or subsequent response from the driver providing the service.

No Shows:

If you do not see your driver at the predetermined pickup address, do not leave the spot before calling us. We will connect you together. If you leave without calling you will be billed for the full price of the ride. If we do not hear from you, the driver will wait up to 15 minutes at regular pickups and between 30 and 60 minutes for airport pickups after the scheduled pickup time. The driver will call the dispatch room, we will then try to reach you by calling you at your mobile phone, your home phone, or your contact person’s phone all depending on the nature of the pickup. If we do not get a response we will then release the car and you will be billed for a no show which will be the full price of the ride to cover the driver’s time. If you authorise and agree to pay the waiting fee, the driver will wait up to 2 hours. If we do not hear from you after the time frame, we will contact you again and if no contact is made you will get billed for the ride plus the waiting time. Therefore a “no show” fee is equal to the trip cost plus applicable wait time fee will be charged when the passenger fails to arrive at the designated location.
